You and Your Baby Paperback / softback
by Frances Thomson-Salo
Part of the The Karnac Developmental Psychology Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
This volume is to help parents understand what their baby is likely to be feeling in the first year.
It describes how the baby's sense of self develops, with intentionality, empathy and recognition of the self.
It focuses on the baby's subjective experience of the world, viewing the baby as a subject in his or her own right, and in this way makes a unique contribution in the area of understanding the early non-verbal experiences of infants.'Each of the authors featured has published papers and books for the academic and clinical communities; the present volumes, however, are specifically aimed at parents.
The intent is not to convince but to inform the reader.
Rather than offering solutions, we are describing, explaining and discussing the problems that parents meet while bringing up their children, from infancy through to adulthood.'We try to provide portraits of the various stages in the child's cognitive, intellectual, and emotional development and how these unfolding stages affect not only the child's experience of himself, but also how he perceives and relates to the world in which he lives.
Our hope is that establishing this context will help the parents who read these books to see their child from a different perspective.'- Dr. A. H. Brafman, from his Series Editor's Foreword
