'Working with Meltzer has represented for each and every one of us [the contributors] the most stimulating and fertile encounter of our entire psychoanalytic training - which is necessarily interminable, as Freud pointed out, referring to analysis itself. Not only are we referring to his knowledge, his amazing clinical penetration, his fidelity to the material and the psychoanalytic method, or his capacity to give colouring to the observations, but also to his personal qualities: human respect, generosity, scientific rigour, and last but not least, his capacity to convey enthusiasm and affection for the task of clinical investigation as well as his confidence in the vital capacities and growth of the patients.- From the Introduction
