Originally published in 1983, in the two decades prior to
publication, specialised neonatal units for the treatment of sick
or preterm babies had been set up in most major neonatal centres.
In the early years these units did little to prevent separation of
parents and babies and evidence accumulated of the ill effects of
this situation. In addition, we had gradually become aware of the
difficulties of building a relationship with a sick or immature
baby even under more ideal circumstances. This book, in a series of
authoritative review chapters, sets out to describe the process by
which social relationships develop after birth and the ways in
which this process may be distorted by separation, the condition of
the baby or by the process of medical treatment. Experienced
practitioners describe practical steps which may be taken to
support parents and foster their relationship with their babies in
treatment situations. The final section of the book examines the
organisation of neonatal care in a number of widely different
settings and indicates that diverse approaches may be successful in
achieving the same ends.
