Pioneer writings in Child Psychology
9 Oct 2005
Format:Paperback
Anna Freud the youngest child of the founder of psychoanalysis was her father's student, and intellectual heir. But she did not content herself with simply parroting her father's teachings she made pioneering investigations of her own in the realms of defense - mechanisms, and development psychology. Above all she devoted her lifework to the study and treatment of children. And her writings on this subject form the great part of this representative volume of her work.
According to the volume's editors Richard Ekins and Ruth Freeman her innovations were in three major areas: " her conceptr of developmental lines, her diagnostic recommendations based on developmental considerations , and what she referred to as ' the metapsychological profile'.
She writes on a variety of topics, "The Concept of the Rejecting Mother", "The Role of Bodily Illness in the Mental Development of Children", "About Losing and Being Lost" "Adolescence"
"Indications for Child Analysis"
This is an essential work for anyone interested in the area of ' child psychology'.
