Description
Michael Fordham's groundbreaking work on childhood development has had a lasting impact on the field. First published in 1944, this book presents a pioneering Jungian model of development and explores the concept of the self in childhood. Through his extensive experience as a psychotherapist and empirical research, Fordham sheds light on the dynamic nature of the self during early years. The book offers a unique perspective on child psychology, drawing from observation studies and experimental research. It provides a wealth of information on infant development and is essential reading for students and professionals in child care and psychotherapy. With its fascinating descriptions from Fordham's practice, this book remains a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of childhood. Published in 1996, this third edition builds upon Fordham's original work, offering a comprehensive understanding of the self in childhood.
