In Growing Up: Revisiting Child Development Theories and their Application to Patients of All Ages, editors Henri Parens and Salman Akhtar present a collection that draws on over fifty years of professional experience in child development. Contributors to this collection touch on psychoanalytic conceptualizations of child development, separation-individuation theory, personal clinical experiences, the effects of trauma and neurodevelopmental disorders in the mother-child relationship, and the intergenerational transmission of trauma. This edited collection is recommended for scholars and practitioners interested in psychoanalysis, child development, and clinical psychology.

Industry Reviews

Growing Pains is a veritable treasure trove of the history of psychoanalytic perspectives on development. The contributors to this edited collection demonstrate the value of Margaret Mahler's separation-individuation theory, including the integration of attachment theory, trauma theory, and intersubjectivity of Mahler's object relations theory. -- Leon Hoffman M.D., New York Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, coauthor of the Manual of Regulation-Focused Psychotherapy for Children (RFP-C) with Externalizing Behaviors
