Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?
This book is ideal for scholars and students of philosophy, psychology, and psychoanalysis, as well as anyone deeply interested in the intricate theories of Wilfred Bion and the intersection of mind and aesthetics.
The author almost encyclopaedically reviews all of Bion's works and does so from the perspective (vertex) of the aesthetic dimension. She scans virtually all the essential elements of Bion's contributions and then details them at length, giving unusual clarifications as she does so.

Description
In this magisterial work, the author almost encyclopaedically reviews all of Bion's works and does so from the perspective (vertex) of the aesthetic dimension. She scans virtually all the essential elements of Bion's contributions and then details them at length, giving unusual clarifications as she does so.
The Aesthetic Dimension of the Mind constitutes an outstanding piece of Bion scholarship and interpretation. One comes away from it with a deep appreciation for the author's dreaming of Bion's work and for the light she has shined on many of Bion's more recondite themes.
- James Grotstein MD, Professor of Psychiatry, UCLA School of Medicine, from his Preface
