Growing Up: Revisiting Child Development Theories and their Application to Patients of all Ages is a veritable treasure trove of the history of psychoanalytic perspectives on development. The contributors to this edited collection demonstrate the value of Margaret Mahler’s separation-individuation theory, including the integration of attachment theory, trauma theory, and intersubjectivity of Mahler’s object relations theory.
Leon Hoffman M.D., New York Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, coauthor of the Manual of Regulation-Focused Psychotherapy for Children (RFP-C) with Externalizing Behaviors
This is a landmark collection of essays on child development that is relevant for clinical work with patients of all ages. Within its pages, a stellar constellation of pioneering researchers and gifted clinicians explicate the intrapsychic in interactive terms and trace the interpersonal to its intrapsychic origins. As a result, we find ourselves on a solid platform to launch newer refinements in developmental theory and in clinical practice!
