"Surveying endings and terminations over the analyst's life course, examining mourning as an anticipation of ending elicited by therapeutic gains over the course of treatment, and concluding with the nettlesome issue of therapist-patient contact after termination, Herbert J. Schlesinger speaks of matters that transcend theoretical allegiance and technical orientation. He speaks, that is, to any and all clinicians whose commitment to their work emboldens them to begin anew - and end anew - with each patient, each day."--BOOK JACKET.
