The Development of Intersubjectivity in the Atypical Child

Beschreibung

This book focuses on the development of self and intersubjectivity in infants, and the parent-child and family interactions that help facilitate it. A unique, step by step account of how these capacities emerged and developed in a child with atypical neurodevelopment over his first four years is examined in the light of theory and research about these issues in normal children as well as in infants and children with various developmental disabilities.
