Losing and Fusing: Borderline Transitional Object and Self Relations (UK) (DE) by Roger Lewin and Clarence Schultz.  "This is one of the most useful books written about bordeline personality disorder. The authors' humanistic approach to treating this severe personality disorder is commandable. This book describes in details the problems and difficulties that faces the patient in his/her daily life: "The aloness versus losing the self in fusion, the misuse of trasitional objects, the concreteness of mental functioning and much more...It also demonstrates the importance of Winnicott's holding notion to the patient's growth. And how holding renders the losing and fusing dangers more manageable". Not only that the authors demonstrate a great deal of understanding. But, they also assert that while comparisons and contrasts are for the sake of the client, a clinician should not lose sight of the uniqueness of each patient. This is a must read for the professional working with seriously disturbed patients. "

Women and Borderline Personality Disorder: Symptoms and Stories by Janet Wirth-Cauchon

Treatments of Psychiatric Disorders (UK) (DE) by Glen O. Gabbard "Cited in the Supplement to Sheehy. The first edition (1989) was published in four volumes as a task force report of the American Psychiatric Association, and became the standard reference on treatment in American psychiatry. The present edition is reduced in size, largely by confining the contributions to treatment issues, with the assumption that readers will familiarize themselves with diagnostic issues by reading DSM-IV. All of the major DSM-IV disorders are covered and all of the major treatment modalities, in 93 contributed chapters by scholars and clinicians who provide a clinically relevant synthesis of the contemporary knowledge in each area."
