How does parent-infant attachment affect mental functioning throughout life? What are the pathways by which interpersonal experience shapes the structure and function of the brain? How are neural processes altered by psychological trauma, and how can psychotherapeutic intervention help?
Going beyond the nature-nurture divisions that traditionally have constrained much of our thinking about development, this volume presents an integrative new framework for understanding the interface of the brain and the social environment. Daniel J. Siegel addresses fundamental questions about mental health and dysfunction as he explores the ways that interpersonal relationships influence the genetically programmed unfolding of the human mind.
Offering a unique perspective on the brain in its natural environment - the growing, feeling, communicating mind - this book belongs on the shelf of professionals and students in a range of fields. It serves as an engaging and informative text for courses in psychiatry, clinical and developmental psychology, neuropsychology, and cognitive science.
