OverviewBion’s unfashionable thought is a challenge for our times in which anaesthesia and mass thinking prevail. The themes this book addresses are time and the unconscious. In the present/past, the here and now reveals its relationship with the unredeemable time, which conditions our behaviour and is at the root of a state of hallucinosis in the form of a short-sighted view that is distorted by deep-seated wounds. This book also highlights the resonances with contemporary epistemology and physics that underlie the new paradigm of psychoanalytic field theory. The topic of the unconscious raises questions about its origin and the difference between the Bionian and the Freudian unconscious. In Bion we see an evolutionary, process character emerge, with a double movement of repetition and expansion within a single system in unstable equilibrium, for which there is no conscious feeling that does not also carry with it the shadow of the unconscious. Drawing on psychoanalytic and philosophical concepts this book is essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, philosophers and anyone who wishes to understand more fully what it means to be human.

At-one-ment, Atonement, IncarnationReviews‘For a long time, Wilfred Bion's thinking was considered eccentric, even foreign or paradoxical, in comparison with that of classic psychoanalysis, or it has been used in a sloganistic manner by extracting the most original concepts and turning them into catchwords that are incredibily distant from his initial communicative intentions. Rugi manages to bring him back into the scene by clarifying the origins, which concern bionian’s complete production in its entirety, and relating it in a consistent and careful manner to that of Freud’s. The result is a book that is both an excavating and an opening, highly useful and indispensable “Memory for the Future.”' Lorena Preta, is an ordinary member of the SPI and the IPA, head of the international research group Geographies of Psychoanalysis, and former director of the magazine Psiche and of Spoleto Scienza. ‘Rugi approaches the concepts of Time and the Unconscious through his own process of dreaming Bion’s thinking. He aims to make it accessible not only to specialists, but also to a wider audience. He invites us to find out about the internal coherence in the unexpected continuity between the earliest insights into groups, and the latest thoughts on factual transformations. This exploration does not always remain static, but turns on itself; expanding, specifying, and delineating from different points. Rugi’s description of Bion clinical material provokes a process of identification and the passion of discovery.'
