Reviews and Endorsements
'The idea for this book arose in a debate stimulated by the new proposals of Widlocher on an ongoing issue for theoretical and clinical psychoanalysis: What are the respective roles of infantile sexuality and attachment (or primary love, if one prefers Balint's term to Bowlby's) in the construction of psychic life and the pathological forms it may take? Widlocher's paper is not only the one with which the book opens but the one which each of the following discussions comments on, puts in question, or critiques, each in its own way.'
- Jacques Andre, from his Preface
