Donald Woods Winnicott (1896-1971) was one of Britain's leading psychoanalysts and paediatricians. The author of some of the most enduring theories of the child and of child analysis, he coined terms such as the "good enough mother" and the "transitional object" (known to most as the security blanket). Winnicott's work is still used today by child and family therapists, social workers, teachers, and psychologists, and his papers and clinical observations are routinely studied by trainees in psychoanalysis, psychiatry, and clinical psychology. Winnicott also wrote for parents, teachers, social workers, paediatricians, childcare specialists, psychologists, policy makers, art and play therapists, and many others in the field of child and adult development.

Now, for the first time, virtually all of Winnicott's writings are presented chronologically in a multi-volume set, edited and annotated by leading Winnicott scholars. The Collected Works of D. W. Winnicott brings together clinical case reports, child consultations, psychoanalytic articles, and public and private correspondence, as well as previously unpublished works on topics of continuing interest to contemporary readers (such as delinquency, antisocial behavior, corporal punishment, and child care). The Collected Works begins with an authoritative General Introduction by editors Lesley Caldwell and Helen Taylor Robinson, and volumes 1 - 11 each feature original introductory essays examining that volume's major themes, written by international Winnicott scholars and psychoanalysts. Throughout the Collected Works, editorial annotations provide historical context and background information of scholarly and clinical value. The 12th and final volume, edited by Robert Ad鑚, contains additional complementary material, including comprehensive bibliographies of Winnicott's publications and letters, documentation of his lectures and broadcasts, and a selection of his drawings.

This extraordinary publication will be an essential resource for readers of Winnicott the world over and also for those interested in the history and origins of the fields of child development and psychoanalysis.

Donald Woods Winnicott (1896-1971) was one of Britain's foremost pediatricians and psychoanalysts. He studied at the Leys School and at Jesus College, both in Cambridge, before training as a physician at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London. He worked at Queen's Hospital and Paddington Green Children's Hospital and in private practice with adults and children from the 1930s until his death. During the Second World War, he made BBC broadcasts to parents and worked with his second wife, Clare, in the Oxfordshire Evacuation Scheme. After the war, they contributed to the government planning of Children's Services.

Winnicott was a child and adult analyst and a training analyst for the British Psychoanalytical Society and its President from 1956 to 1959 and from 1965 to 1968. He was President of the Paediatric Section of the Royal Society of Medicine (1952) and of the Association for Child Psychology and Psychiatry. Winnicott was a clinician committed to the dissemination of psychoanalytic ideas to wider global audiences, and he addressed a large variety of groups of professionals in his many talks, lectures, and publications.
