A great introduction to the basic prinicples of Object Relations Therapy. The chapters followed a nice progression from theory to practice to case studies. In addition, its compact and handy format (tables, charts, etc.) makes this an easy reference for refreshing on terminology, concepts, etc. This text has been influential in forming my therapeutic framework.
