To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the publication of D.W. Winnicott's "Playing and Reality", a number of organizations - including the University of Milan, the European Federation for Psychoanalysis, the Italian Association of Psychoanalysis, the Peruvian Psychoanalytic Society, together with the Squiggle Foundation and Winnicott Trust - organized a major international conference on Winnicott's work, entitled "The Psyche-Soma: from Paediatrics to Psychoanalysis". Derived from that conference, "Squiggles and Spaces" looks to update and elaborate Winnicott's theoretical insights and clinical findings. Volume two distinguishes itself from the first volume primarily in two ways. On the one hand, a significant portion of the book is dedicated to a comparative study of Winnicott s work and that of his noteworthy contemporaries (or near-contemporaries). Among these are Ferenczi, Balint, Tustin, Bion and C.G. Jung. The second feature of this volume is the wide array of essays by Italian psychoanalysts working in the tradition of Winnicott.
