The work of Michael Balint, a leading object-relations theorist, has been neglected since his death in 1970. This book re-establishes his major contributions to psychoanalysis.
"I would commend Harold Stewart's book as a good introduction to Balint's thinking and development. There is also a useful biographical sketch and bibilography." - Oxford Psychotherapy Society Bulletin
"Provides a stimulating and admirably clear account of Michael Balint's contribution to psychoanalysis and applied psychoanlaysis as well as painting an absorbing picture of Balint himself." - British Journal of Psychotherapy
