5.0 out of 5 stars An insightful, informative, and yet gentle book, 10 Feb 2009
By S. L. Jones "Sheenagh" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Perry and Szalavitz have achieved a rare thing - an informative and academic text that reads like a series of short biographical stories. I read it from cover to cover. The authors enable their readers to access complex theories in a very human way. Reading this will help you to understand the bio-psycho-social links in human development, how they can go wrong and cause damage, and how they can heal. Behind its strange title lies a very intelligent, humane and gentle approach, based on scientific knowledge and real experiences of human relationships. It's a book I want to share!

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended, 3 Mar 2009
As a teacher, I was recommended this book after attending a course on Looked After Children. What I hadn't anticipated was the insight the book would give me into the way children in general respond and think as they develop. It even began to make me think about my own development and way of thinking.

Brilliant easy read. Highly interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, 3 Jun 2009
Uplifting although sad. It reinforces the importance of proper care & nurturing in the early years. One of the best books I have read.
