Praise for the Beginning to Grow: Five Studies by Sylvia Brody . . .
Freud reminded us that theory was good but did not prevent reality from happening. Sylvia Brody once more advances analytic understanding by maintaining relentless discipline in studying lives as they actually unfold. This new rich and readable account of several lives studied across decades exposes and explores essential aspects of mental functioning now too often neglected.
Warren S. Poland, M.D.
With clarity, and drawing on observational evidence, Brody brings mother infant interaction and its impact on subsequent development to the center stage of psychoanalytic theory.
Peter Blos, Jr., M.D.
This is a book not to be missed by anyone who works with children. It provides an incisive history of infancy research and a longitudinal study of development from birth to age 18.
Arlene Kramer Richards, Ed.D.
Sylvia Brody has topped off a lifetime of interest in maternal influences on development with her brilliant new book, Beginning to Grow: Five Studies. Dr. Brody combines Freud’s theory of the component instincts, voyeurism, exhibitionism, and cruelty, with Erickson’s eight stages of ego maturation, and illustrates the development of the component instincts in five longitudinal studies of children from birth to the age of 18. No one interested in psychological development can afford to miss this ingenious, easy-to-read book.
