À propos de l?auteur

Wilfred R. Bion was born in India in 1897 and educated at Bishop's Stortford College in England. During World War One he served as a tank commander in France, and was awarded both the Distinguished Service Order (DSO) in 1918 for his actions at the Battle of Cambrai. Bion studied history at The Queen's College, Oxford, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1922, before studying medicine at University College London. Bion spent seven years in psychotherapeutic training at the Tavistock Clinic in London and in 1938 he began a training analyst. Interrupted by the advent of the Second World War, Bion was recommissioned in the Royal Army Medical Corps as a lieutenant and worked in a number of military hospitals including Northfield Military Hospital, where he worked with shell-shocked soldiers. Returning to the Tavistock Clinic after the war, he underwent analysis with Melanie Klein. Working with patients with psychotic disorders, he produced a series of highly original and influential papers on the analysis of schizophrenia. In 1968, Bion moved to Los Angeles continuing his psychoanalytic work and supervising a number of psychoanalysts, including James Gooch and other founding members of the Psychoanalytic Center of California. He returned to Oxfordshire shortly before his death in 1979.
