Reading Klein provides an introduction to the work of one of the twentieth centurys greatest psychoanalysts, known in particular for her contribution in developing child analysis and for her vivid depiction of the inner world. This book makes Melanie Kleins works highly accessible, providing both substantial extracts from her writings, and commentaries by the authors exploring their significance.Each chapter corresponds to a major field of Kleins work outlining its development over almost 40 years. The first part is concerned with her theoretical and clinical contributions. It shows Klein to be a sensitive clinician deeply concerned for her patients, and with a remarkable capacity to understand their unconscious anxieties and to revise our understanding of the mind. The second part sets out the contribution of her ideas to morality, to aesthetics and to the understanding of society, introducing writing by her associates as well as herself.The book provides a lucid account of Kleins published writing, presented by two distinguished writers who know her work well and have made creative use of it in their own clinical and extraclinical writing.Its aim is to show how substantial her contribution to psychoanalytic thinking and clinical practice was, and how indispensable it remains to understanding the field of psychoanalysis.Reading Klein will be a highly valuable resource for students, trainees in psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic practitioners and all who are interested in Melanie Klein and her legacy.
