Thanks to Mary for volunteering to coordinate a discussion, or
co-construct an on-line discursive space [textual space], that allows
us to delve into Leiman and Winnicott's ideas about object relations.
I have to admit that I have a big void where thoughtful study of this
topic could be and years of resistance to most things Freudian and
psychoanalytic. I'll need a friendly guide to lead the way. Looking
forward to it - Best to all for 2006 - jennifer
