Article J. Holmes "10 books" (read).
"It is hard for someone of my generation to imagine a world without books - although my wife is constantly encouraging me to reduce the numbers of those that furnish our rooms. So, to conclude: what are books, and why do they matter?
A book is a friend, companion, whiler away of time, transporter to another world, a bridge across geography and history, a refuge from the rigours of work, not to mention a possible bed prop and aid to deportment. To use Winnicott's term, a book is transitional: an inanimate object, a set of arbitrary marks on a piece of pulped wood, yet one that has a life of its own.
Reading is a key that simultaneously opens up our own inner world and that of others. I end, then, with the thought that reading books is a kind of therapy - one that, like psychodynamic psychiatry, will continually renew itself."

Attachment as a therapeutic modality
"I will outline how Attachment Theory emerged as a fusion between psychoanalysis and ethology and the relative contributions of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth. I will show how subsequent research by Main and others provides a scientific basis for psychotherapeutic work, and how attachment principles can help therapists work more effectively and sensitively".

The free energy principle: a neuroscientific basis for psychodynamic practice
"Recent work by the neuroscientist Karl Friston provides a scientific basis for Freud’s abandoned ‘Project’, in which energy bound and unbound correspond with conscious and unconscious thought. I will show how these ideas are applicable to clinical work with people suffering from trauma, eating disorders and depression".

Attachment and personality disorder
"I will outline the theoretical basis for personality disorder diagnosis, and suggest that the attachment categories of avoidant, resistant, and disorganised attachment provide a nosology for thinking about and working with people suffering from the various types of personality disorder. Clinical examples will be discussed".

Working with Borderline personality disorder
"The challenges and rewards of working with Borderline pathology will be outlined from an attachment perspective. Metallisation Based therapy, its strengths and limitations, will be discussed. An existential approach, based on radical acceptance, represents the lecturer’s preferred stance with such patients, in contrast to a more challenging pathology-focused interpretive one."
