Edited by Marie Zaphirious Woods and Inge-Martine Pretorius (Routledge, 20.99, ISBN: 978-0-415-4860-8)

Focusing on an approach developed by the Anna Freud Centre, this book explores how psychoanalytical principles can be applied when working with parents and toddlers in groups. Illustrated with observations, it discusses how these groups can be an effective medium for early intervention during a period which is critical for the negotiation of a child's central emotional issues.
