<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Winnicott is concerned with the springs of imaginative living and of cultural experience in every sense, with whatever determines an individual's capacity to live creatively and to find life worth living.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>What are the origins of creativity and how can we develop it - whether within ourselves or in others? Not only does <em>Playing and Reality</em> 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 landmark book of twentieth-century psychology, Winnicott 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. Today, as the 'hothousing' and testing of children begins at an ever-younger age, Winnicott's classic text is a more urgent and topical read than ever before.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><em>"Winnicott was the greatest British psychoanalyst who ever lived. He writes beautifully and simply about the problems of everyday life - and is the perfect thing to read if you want to understand yourself and other people better."</em> <strong>-</strong> <strong>Alain de Botton</strong><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>D.W.
