The individual observations are vivid and moving, and beautifully detailed ... This book serves as a very useful introduction to an important and still relatively neglected, area of infant development and mental health. It offers a helpful review of the research in the field for all professionals who are working in these special-care units, as well as anybody who is interested in research into prematurity and the complex system of relationships that involve both family members and professionals - Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
