Description

Anna Freud's writings offer valuable insights into the history and practice of psychoanalysis, particularly in relation to working with children. This accessible introduction explores her key papers and their ongoing relevance today.

The book covers a range of topics, including child analysis, developmental therapy, education, paediatrics, law, childhood disorders, and psychoanalytic research. Nick Midgley draws on his experience as a child psychotherapist and teacher to illustrate the originality of Anna Freud's thinking and its applications in various settings.

Reading Anna Freud is of interest to professionals working in child and adolescent mental health, including child therapists, analysts, psychologists, psychiatrists, and educational psychologists. The book provides a useful overview of her ideas and their continued importance in informing therapeutic practice and care for children.
