{"product_id":"bion-and-being-annie-reiner-9781855758544","title":"Bion and Being: Passion and the Creative Mind","description":"With his concept of \"O,\" Wilfred Bion provided a new psychoanalytic space in which to explore the mind. Dr Annie Reiner's new book, \u003cem\u003eBion and Being: Passion and the Creative Mind\u003c\/em\u003e, examines the similarities between this psychoanalytic space and the artist's creative sensibility, as well as mystical and religious states. This most mysterious and revolutionary of Bion's analytic ideas reflects what is essentially a state of being, an experience of mental integrity and union between emotional and rational functions of the mind which is the basis of thinking and creativity. In an effort to provide emotional understanding to Bion's theoretical ideas, Dr Reiner uses examples of artists, poets, writers, theologians, and philosophers, including Rilke, Cummings, Shakespeare, Beckett, and Nietzsche, to illustrate these psychoanalytic concepts. She also presents detailed clinical examples of patient's dreams to explore the obstacles to these states of being, as well as how to work clinically to develop access to these creative states.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annie Reiner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1855758547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855758544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Annie Reiner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47424502563071,"sku":"9781855758544","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f65c571-741c-4263-b1ea-bfd29ca23396.jpg?v=1761530643","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bion-and-being-annie-reiner-9781855758544","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
