- Title
Bion and Meltzer's Expeditions into Unmapped Mental Life: Beyond the Spectrum in Psychoanalysis.
- Authors
Morgan, Neil
- Abstract
Chapter 7, on the patients apparent deadness and obsessionality, takes further Bergstein's conviction that nameless experiences, those that should have been registered and represented by the primary object, can still be registered (adequately for the first time) through the countertransference - thereby becoming tangible to the patient. One of the strengths of the book is how it combines a good balance of theoretical discussion with detailed work from Bergstein's encounters with his patients, which he uses to illustrate his argument. Bergstein also draws our attention to an important paper by Jim Rose ([8], p. 113), which is still under-recognized, and under-appreciated, but very relevant to the case Bergstein is making.
