Attachment Across Clinical and Cultural Perspectives brings
together leading thinkers in attachment theory to explore its
importance across cultural, clinical and social contexts and the
application of attachment relationship principles to intervention
with diverse groups of children and families. These contributions
collectively illustrate the robustness of attachment research in
the contexts of culture, early extreme deprivation, trauma and the
developing brain, providing great inspiration for anyone embracing
the idea of evidence-based practice. Two chapters convey
fundamentals of attachment theory, covering links between
attachment and normal and pathological development and the
interface between attachment and other features of evolutionary
theory. Two others specifically tackle the cultural context of
attachment; fundamental research findings with North American and
European samples are shown to hold as well among indigenous people
in a rural Mexican village, whilst the link between maternal
sensitivity and secure attachment is demonstrated in a variety of
cultures. Further chapters explore the role of fear and trauma in
the formation of attachment; one establishes intergenerational
links between parental history of trauma, dissociative states of
mind and infant disorganized attachment, another looks at the
consequences of early extreme deprivation (institutional rearing)
for attachment. A third describes the impact of attachment
experiences on brain development. Finally, the book explores
intervention guided by attachment theory, research on fear and
trauma, and an understanding of how attachment experiences leave
their mark on parental psyche and behaviour. Attachment Across
Clinical and Cultural Perspectives gathers authoritative
information from leading experts in the field in an easily
readable, practical way. It will appeal to psychoanalysts and
psychoanalytic psychotherapists, to professionals who serve the
developmental and mental health needs of adults, children and
families, and anyone seeking to base their intervention work and
therapy upon attachment principles.
