Publisher Synopsis
"This book provides an excellent and easily understood story about the connections of social child development and neuroscience. This is a "must" for anyone interested in human behavior." -- Lonnie Zeltzer, M.D., Director, Pediatric Pain Program, Professor of Pediatrics, Anesthesiology, Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA "Lou Cozolino has created a comprehensive tour of the social brain, illuminating to both scientists and lay readers." -- Lise Elliot, Ph.D., Department of Neuroscience, The Chicago Medical School, and author of What's Going On In There? How the Brain and Mind Develop in the First Five Years of Life "Captivating and well written...a major contribution to the rapidly emerging field of neuro-psychoanalysis. Everyone practicing or interested in the emerging fields of mind and brain sciences should read it." -- Cristina Alberini, Ph.D., Departments of Neuroscience and Psychiatry, Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, New York "Reading this book has added a whole new dimension to my work and everyday life. Highly recommended." -- Therapy Today "A very insightful exploration of the basic theories of interpersonal neurobiology. . . . This book makes a very valuable contribution to this much needed knowledge." -- The Scientific & Medical Network "An engaging introduction to the application of neuroscience to human behavior. I found it an absolute pleasure. . . . His deft interweaving of case examples with theory and physiology (illuminated by charts and drawings) makes the material easily digestible." -- Keeping in Touch: The United States Association for Body Psychotherapy Newsletter "This master teacher makes neuroscience fascinating and accessible....This book is highly recommended to current and future clinicians." -- Issues in Mental Health Nursing "Cozolino adds...impressive contributions to the increasingly important field of neurobiology and attachment theory, and how these contribute to human development." -- Clinical Social Work "The overall scope of the discussion is far-reaching and in many ways provocative, but the argument is persuasive and offers a broad overview of the range and complexity of issues confronting the emerging field of neuropsychoanalysis....[A] wealth of detailed information and a glimpse of what may become a vision of the future." -- Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic "This book is a pleasure to read. It is richly illustrated with clinical examples and synthesizes knowledge from the neurophysiological and psychological domains with psychological perspectives that will allow both seasoned clinicians and beginning therapists 'to integrate a brain-based understanding of human development, mental health, and mental illness' (p. 307) into their psychodynamic paradigms. The references are excellent. Best of all, the work reflects the author's ebullient spirit. . . . I recommend this book enthusiastically to all my colleagues. Over the past 6 months, I have found myself rereading chapters and enriching my own ability to integrate brain-mind areas that were previously isolated islands of thought." -- American Journal of Psychology Read more...
