Essential Papers on Suicide
In the context of a plateau in the development of new methodologies for using nuclear magnetic resonance to investigate the structure of macromolecules, 21 lectures and ensuing discussions, and three panel discussions evaluate the status of the field and the directions it might take. The keynote address discusses the possibilities and limitations of NMR studies of the intramolecular dynamics of biomolecules. Among the other topics are proteins involved in cell adhesion processes, incorporating motional properties into the interpretation of three-dimensional solution structures, the accurate measurement of internuclear distances by suppressing spin diffusion, and flexible molecules. Abstracts are also provided for about 70 poster papers. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Helping Young Children Grow
"Furman leads us step-by-step from the first emotionally dependent crucial relationship between the mother and her baby through the maturing child's need and ability to form new and different relationships. This work is valuable reading for prospective parents, those who are already parents, and anyone working with children." --Robert D. Gillman, M.D.
A History of Child Psychoanalysis
Child analysis has occupied a special place in the history of psychoanalysis because of the challenges it poses to practitioners and the clashes it has provoked among its advocates. Since the early days in Vienna under Sigmund Freud child psychoanalysts have tried to comprehend and make comprehensible to others the psychosomatic troubles of childhood and to adapt clinical and therapeutic approaches to all the stages of development of the baby, the child, the adolescent and the young adult. Claudine and Pierre Geissmann trace the history and development of child analysis over the last century and assess the contributions made by pioneers of the discipline, whose efforts to expand its theoretical foundations led to conflict between schools of thought, most notably to the rift between Anna Freud and Melanie Klein. Now taught and practised widely in Europe, the USA and South America, child and adolescent psychoanalysis is unique in the insight it gives into the psychological aspects of child development, and in the therapeutic benefits it can bring both to the child and its family.

On Being and Having a Mother
Description of Content: Fourteen of Erna Furman's seminal papers on being and having a mother are collected here, presenting the central body of her ideas on parenting. Like all her writings they derive from her work as a child analyst at the Hanna Perkins Center in Cleveland, Ohio, where she has directed the Toddler Group since 1984. As she notes in her Introduction, the chapters combine data, insight, and understanding gained from her experience at the Center, from the treatment of patients in the associated psychoanalytic clinic, and from consultation with professionals. Some topics she addresses are: parenthood as a developmental phase; how parents who lost a newborn can be helped; difficulties for the mother left by a growing child; self-care through encouragement; death of a parent; work with hospitalized children; problems of children of divorce; one-parent family; and early steps in gender development.
True Pretences
