4.0 out of 5 stars a clear therory of pychoanalytical attachemnt theory, 24 May 2001
By A Customer
This book is a very clear guide and explantion of attachment and Bowlbys notion of a Secure base.It is useful for a concise idea of attachment and makes a good alternative to reading all three attachment volumes if you only want a vague gist,without the technical jargon.Good read for students, and in my opnion well worth a read.The cheats guide to attachment theory!
