It is usual to consider the effects parents have on children; this
title, originally published in 1977, reverses the focus and reveals
a subject every bit as important and interesting. The authors, both
professional psychologists, present their findings under three
major headings - "History", "Theories and Research Approaches" and
"Concepts and Findings" - that discuss the social, psychological,
and biological influences children exert on parents. Bell and
Harper oppose the "intellectual apartheid" that prevents
behavioural scientists from investigating "the continuity of
interaction processes from other animals to man" and include
substantial research findings in mammalian biology to show more
precisely the reciprocal relations between parents and their
offspring. Their "bidirectional approach" to the study of
child-rearing is meant to offset empirical prejudices that had so
far dominated child-care sciences at the time.
