Summary |
60 years ago the Yale Child Study Center planned to formulate a general psychoanalytic theory of children's early development. The group's expert members composed detailed narratives about their work with the study's children, interviewed families regularly and visited them in their homes, and over the course of a decade met monthly for discussion. This book considers the significance of the Child Study Center's landmark study from various perspectives, focusing particularly on one child's unfolding sense of herself, her gender, and her relationships. |
