Neville Symington 1937-2019
It is with great sadness that I would like to inform you of the passing of Neville Symington. Following a brief hospitalisation and a rapid decline in his health, Neville died on Tuesday morning 3 December at the Seventh Day Adventist Hospital in Wahroonga, New South Wales, Australia.
Below is a section of Neville’s better-known papers and books:
"The response aroused by the psychopath", International Review of Psycho-Analysis 7 (1980)
"The analyst's act of freedom as agent of therapeutic change" Int Rev of P-A 10 (1983)
The Making of a Psychotherapist (London 1991)
Narcissism: A New Theory (London 1993)
The Analytic Experience (London 1996) – Tavistock Lectures
The Clinical Thinking of Wilfred Bion (1996)
The Spirit of Sanity (2011)
Emotion and Spirit (London 1998) – Religion and Psycho-Analysis
The Spirit of Sanity (London 2001) – Religion and Psycho-Analysis
A Patter of Madness (2002)
The Psychology of the Person (2012)
A Different Path; An Emotional Autobiography (2016)
The Growth of Mind (2017)
A timely and apt quote from Neville’s autobiography, "Our human task is to be lived by Life. Life as a transcendent principle. It seems to me that a reliable test of whether we have lived worthwhile lives is this: is the world a better place for my having lived in it?"
Dr Mark Thorpe, Chairperson NZIPP.
