About the Book

There is a rapidly growing international literature on very early infant relationships. Many authors have addressed the psychological aspects of neonatal intensive care and indicated a need for greater understanding and research into the links between caregiving interventions and the baby's physical and emotional development. This book looks specifically at the experiences of the premature baby in hospital and how the way professionals and parents interact with it and between themselves affects its future development. The author draws from psychoanalysis, developmental psychology, and ethnology, but takes a systemic perspective throughout. Observational material graphically illustrates the theoretical points and makes the book particularly useful for the practitioner and student.

Table of Contents:
Introduction; Parent-Child Relationships from Different Perspectives; The `Special Care' Baby; Holding on to Meaning; Observations in a Special Care Baby Unit; Stories from a Special Care Baby Unit; Observer and Observed; Making Sense of the Experience; Case Studies; Therapeutic Interventions; The Future; Concluding Comments

About the Author :
Anne McFadyen is Senior lecturer in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Dundee.

Review :
A significant contribution to our understanding of the various worlds of the neonatal nursery ... a wealth of insight to be gained from this book which should certainly help any neonatal nurses who want `to hold on to meaning' in their work. - Nursing Times There has been a dearth of literature considering premature babies and the bonding process. This book more than adequately redresses the balance. All NICU nurses and midwives, and those looking after parents with babies in special care should read it. - Midirs - Midwifery Digest A significant contribution to our understanding of the various worlds of the neonatal nursery ... a wealth of insight to be gained from this book which should certainly help any neonatal nurses who want `to hold on to meaning' in their work. - Nursing Times There has been a dearth of literature considering premature babies and the bonding process. This book more than adequately redresses the balance. All NICU nurses and midwives, and those looking after parents with babies in special care should read it. - Midirs - Midwifery Digest Essential reading for therapists about to extend their service into a neonatal intensive care unit. - NAPOT Newsletter The individual observations are vivid and moving, and beautifully detailed ... This book serves as a very useful introduction to an important and still relatively neglected, area of infant development and mental health. It offers a helpful review of the research in the field for all professionals who are working in these special-care units, as well as anybody who is interested in research into prematurity and the complex system of relationships that involve both family members and professionals - Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
