This first volume of John Bowlby's Attachment and Loss series examines the nature of the child's ties to the 'mother' figure. Beginning with a discussion of instinctive behavior, its causation, functioning, and ontogeny, Bowlby proceeds to a theoretical formulation of attachment behavior, how it develops, how it is maintained and what functions it fulfills.

"The lucidity of exposition and the thoroughness in marshalling the relevant data make it likely that the publication of Attachment...will prove a turning point in the history of psychoanalysis and psychology generally." -- Times Literary Supplement
