About This Item
New York: Berkley Books. 2002. Very Good condition. Illustrated with Black and White Photographs. 336 pages. In the early twentieth century, affection between parents and their children was discouraged. Psychologists thought it would create needy kids, and doctors thought it would spread infectious disease. It took a revolution in psychology to overturn these beliefs and prove that touch ensures emotional and intellectual health. In this book the author charts this profound cultural shift by tracing the story of Harry Harlow, the man who studied neglect and its life-altering consequences on primates in his lab. The biography of both a man and an idea. . 1st thus. Trade Paperback.
