The recent explosion of new research about infants, parental care,
and infant-parent relationships has shown conclusively that human
relationships are central motivators and organizers in development.
Relationships in Development examines the practical implications
for dynamic psychotherapy with both adults and children, especially
following trauma. Stephen Seligman offers engaging examples of
infant-parent interactions as well as of psychotherapeutic process.
He traces the place of childhood and child development in
psychoanalysis from Freud onward, showing how different images
about babies evolved and influenced analytic theory and practice.
Relationships in Development offers a new integration of ideas that
updates established psychoanalytic models in a new context:
"Relational-developmental psychoanalysis." Seligman integrates four
crucial domains: Infancy Research, including attachment theory and
research Developmental Psychoanalysis Relational/intersubjective
Psychoanalysis Classical Freudian, Kleinian, and Object Relations
theories (including Winnicott). An array of specific sources are
included: developmental neuroscience, attachment theory and
research, studies of emotion, trauma and infant-parent interaction,
and nonlinear dynamic systems theories. Although new psychoanalytic
approaches are featured, the classical theories are not neglected,
including the Freudian, Kleinian, Winnicottian, and Ego Psychology
orientations. Seligman links current knowledge about early
experiences and how they shape later development with the
traditional psychoanalytic attention to the irrational,
unconscious, turbulent, and unknowable aspects of the mind and
human interaction. These different fields are taken together to
offer an open and flexible approach to psychodynamic therapy with a
variety of patients in different socioeconomic and cultural
situations. Relationships in Development will appeal to
psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists, and graduate
students in psychology, social work, and psychotherapy. The
fundamental issues and implications presented will also be of great
importance to the wider psychodynamic and psychotherapeutic
communities.
