Observing Organisations presents a unique approach derived from direct participant observation of small units within institutions, all in the health and social services sector.
A range of contributors bring together the results of their own observational projects to show how they were able to come to a psychoanalytically informed understanding of the cultures that arise within healthcare organisations, and how this understanding can be used to overcome difficulties that arise.
R.D. Hinshelwood is Professor in the Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies at the University of Essex, and was previously Clinical Director of the Cassel Hospital, London. Wilhelm Skogstad is a Consultant Psychotherapist at the Cassel Hospital and a psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice.
