A perfect introduction to contemporary neuroscientific research by Melanie Klein. Klein's writings, particularly on infant development and psychosis, have been crucial for both theoretical work and clinical practice. The book "Envy and Gratitude" brings together her works from 1946 until her death in 1960, including two papers published posthumously. Klein's main work, "Notes on Some Schizoid Mechanisms", introduces the concept of the paranoid-schizoid position, in which the infantile ego splits, projects, and internalizes its objects - especially the mother - during the first months of life. "Envy and Gratitude," her last major work, introduces her theory of primary envy.
