This is an absorbing book on the warm encounter between one of the sharpest British thinkers of the 20th Century, and a thriving young doctor from Spain who comes to study with him. Their relationship developed from 1984 to 1990 at the London Tavistock Clinic, the largest provider of psychoanalytic psychotherapy in Europe. The story is personal and shows the affection between the two men, a delicate yet invigorating shift from a "story told" to a "story lived". The book pays a heartfelt homage to John Bowlby (1907-1990), "father" of Attachment Theory; to the strangely precise and transparent naturalness of his thinking; to his gentleness, compassion and encouragement; to his overwhelming humanity; and finally, to his genius. Bowlby's own development and attachment history are vividly portrayed. His message was deceptively simple: "we need our mothers and fathers and groups. We need one another". The author, Arturo Ezquerro (a consultant psychiatrist, psychoanalytic psychotherapist, group analyst, and former Head of a London Medical Psychotherapy Department) aims to be unashamedly inclusive, sensitive to diversity and undogmatic. Mental health professionals and trainees may appreciate a reasoned integration of theory, research, training and clinical practice. Yet, the text is also accessible to anyone who is interested in relationships and personal development, or who has ever been a patient. Moreover, the reader might learn from and identify with touching real life experiences that show our struggle to become attached, to survive, and to grow.
