Review
Each case study begins by describing the initial contact with the two mothers, before going on to describe the other members of the families. The development of each situation is traced through the years, as is the development of each baby under observation. Finally, the two cases are reviewed together and some general conclusions are drawn.These case studies are at times upsetting, but equally fascinating reading. They provide a thought-provoking insight into the benefits and role of infant observation in psychoanalysis.This classic text is required reading for all students and professionals involved in this important field of research.
