Winnicott on the Child

by Donald Woods Winnicott

Winnicott on the Child Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This delightful book presents a selection of D. W. Winnicott's best writing about children. The remarkable, enduring essays from Babies and Their Mothers and Talking to Parents are here combined with several hard-to-find gems of insight into the world of the child. Each piece was written for a wide audience of parents, childcare professionals, and teachers. In his empathic and witty way, Winnicott ranges over such timeless topics as the mother/infant relationship, trust, instilling a sense of security, negativism, jealousy and moral development. Now, in one volume, anyone who cares about children can enjoy the wisdom of a man many consider to be the most important psychoanalyst since Freud.A Merloyd Lawrence Book

Book News Annotation:

This volume reproduces 26 essays by the late child psychologist Winnicott. The essays seem primarily aimed at expectant and new parents, offering advice based on Winnicott's understanding of psychology and child development. With the exception of six essays on the child's life in the family, these essays have previously been published as Babies and Their Mothers (1987) and Talking to Parents (1993). Three heavyweights of the child development world (Brazelton, Greenspan, and Spock) provide introductions
