Reviews
"Lichtenberg, in this book, has clearly undertaken an important and extremely difficult task. He has integrated the current work of two fields of behavioral science which attempt to understand and explain the development of the normal and the pathologically marred child and adult. He is also, however, suggesting alterations in our theory of the mind, alterations in technique, and alterations in our theory of cure. This book might, therefore, serve as a point of departure in discussions as to the nature of theory and treatment. It can also serve as a bridge to discussion with scientists outside our profession who are involved in the direct observation of children."
- Sydney M. Lytton, M.D., Bulletin of the Psychoanalytic Association of New York
"Psychoanalysis and Infant Research is one of the most important publications in our discipline in recent years, mandatory reading for all psychotherapists. There is so much information and so many ideas packed into the book that one can only mention some of the high points in the hope that the reader will turn directly to the book."
- Richard D. Chessick, Ph.D., Dynamic Psychotherapy
