The ideas presented in this book are the outcome of years of
conducting psychotherapy and psychoanalysis with adults and
children, working with mother infant groups, and studying infant
development. Working with mother infant pairs as an observer,
rather than as a therapist, is for a psychoanalyst what time travel
would be for an archeologist, albeit infinitely more accessible.
One is privileged to observe the early relationship "in statu
nascendi," as it unfolds, whereas reconstructing it in
psychoanalysis is a slow, complex process, burdened by false
starts, doubts and painstaking (sometimes painful) examination of
the counter-transference. Observing normal infants in their natural
environment allows one also to appreciate the rich variety of
infant personalities and their impact on the caregivers.The book
examines the clinical implications of innate developmental
individuality. The authors present an outline of the
interdependence of the developmental sequences: perceptual, motor,
cognitive and emotional. The book examines the clinical and
theoretical issues, as well as examining some recent advances in
neuro-behavioral sciences."
