The passage discusses the efforts to prevent homelessness and the role of Children's Officers in addressing issues related to children and families. It highlights the importance of case-work and the potential for reunification with families. In cases involving personality difficulties, cooperation from various services is sought. The report on these efforts is recommended for study by those interested in the work of Children's Officers and the administration of the Children Act. The review of W. Ronald D. Fairbairn's book "Psychoanalytic Studies of the Personality" praises its originality and stimulating approach. Fairbairn's theory of personality structure, which emphasizes object-seeking rather than pleasure-seeking, is detailed. The book includes clinical papers and applied psycho-analysis, with a focus on war neurosis and the role of separation anxiety. Fairbairn's theory of endopsychic structure, involving a central ego, an internal saboteur, and a libidinal ego, is particularly noteworthy and likely to spark controversy. The book offers valuable insights into group behavior and social psychiatry.The passage discusses the efforts to prevent homelessness and the role of Children's Officers in addressing issues related to children and families.
