John Bowlby - From Psychoanalysis to Ethology: Unraveling the Roots of Attachment Theory

Reviews

---

"Overall, this book, although somewhat cost-prohibitive, does a very good job of helping to contextualize the development of attachment theory and would be useful reading for both clinicians and researchers at all levels of understanding regarding attachment theory. I agree with Jerome Kagan that this is a ''coherent, gracefully written, even-handed, and richly detailed description."  (Journal of Marital and Family Therapy, 1 October 2012)

"Nonetheless, for those interested in the history of psychology, and attachment theory in particular, I recommend John Bowlby: From Psychoanalysis to Ethology for what it tells us about the origins of attachment and John Bowlby's courageous forging of attachment theory."  (PsycCRITIQUES, 2 May 2012)
