PLAYING AND REALITY

For the psychologist D.W. Winnicott, a creative approach to the world is what makes life worth living. But what are the origins of creativity and how can we develop it - whether within ourselves or in others? Not only does 'Playing and Reality' address these questions, it also tackles many more that surround the fundamental issue of the individual self and its relationship with the outside world. In this book of twentieth-century psychology, he shows the reader how, through the attentive nurturing of creativity from the earliest years, every individual has the opportunity to enjoy a rich and rewarding cultural life.
