From its origins in the 1950s with the work of John Bowlby and Mary
Ainsworth, Attachment Theory has expanded over the ensuing half
century to become a central psychobiological paradigm in
developmental and clinical psychology. Carefully compiled by an
editorial partnership which spans both sides of the Atlantic, this
new six-volume major work seeks to bring together for the first
time important original papers on the subject of Attachment, making
it an invaluable resource for all mental health professionals, from
psychology, medicine, psychiatry, nursing, counselling, and all
modalities of psychotherapy. Opening with a newly-written
introductory chapter which aims to provide a contextualising map of
the field, the set is carefully divided into twenty sections split
over six volumes, covering a broad range of key aspects on
Attachment Theory.
As they play, children do more than imagine--they also invent life-long approaches to thinking, feeling, and relating to other people. For nearly a century, clinical psychologists have been concerned with the content and interpersonal meaning of play. More recently, developmental psychologists have concentrated on the links between the emergence of symbolic play and evolving thought and language. At last, this volume bridges the gap between the two disciplines by defining their common interests and by developing areas of interface and interrelatedness. The editors have brought together original chapters by distinguished psychoanalysts, clinical psychologists, social workers, and developmental psychologists who shed light on topics outside the traditional confines of their respective domains. Thus the book features clinicians exploring subjects such as play representation, narrative, metaphor, and symbolization, and developmentalists examining questions regarding affect, social development, conflict, and psychopathology. Taken together, the contributors offer a rich, integrative view of the many dimensions of early play as it occurs among peers, between parent and child, and in the context of therapy.
