ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many thanks to the editors of Psychoanalytic Perspectives, who have supported my vision and given me the space to create something new in a scholarly journal. I also want to express deep appreciation for the extraordinary education and clinical training I received at my professional home, the National Institute for the Psychotherapies in New York—and to all my friends and colleagues in the NIP community. I’m extremely grateful to Rod Tweedy, my editor at Karnac, for believing in this book and bringing his gifted hands to the project. Thanks also to Kate Pearce, Cecily Blench, Constance Govindin, and James Darley at Karnac, who all made important contributions. I’m indebted to Amanda Ashworth, publisher of Psychoanalytic Perspectives at Routledge, for her creative enthusiasm and for sharing her love of Wordsworth—and to production editor Leah Cutler, who has been a steady and meticulous hand. To Mannie Ghent, my training analyst, who encouraged my rebirth, and who read to me from treasured books in his library, especially the poems of Jacques Prevert and Ovid’s Metamorphosis. I am especially grateful to Thomas Ogden, who embodies the essence of creative vitality. We share a love of literature and writing. He has been a trusted source of inspiration, and I deeply value our friendship. ix
