Attachment Across the Life Cycle by Colin Murray Parkes

To explain and understand the patterns that attachment play in psychiatric and social problems a body of knowledge has sprung up which owes much to the pioneering work of the late John Bowlby. This book draws together recent theoretical contributions, research findings and clinical data from psychiatrists, psychologists, sociologists and ethologists from Britain, America and Europe.

`The quality of the individual contributions, their integrative non-technical style and their general accessibility make this an exceptional and extremely useful addition to literature on attachment' - Peter Fonagy, University College London in The Times Higher Education Supplement

'Contains much material of particular interest to those working with the bereaved ... a fascinating insight into the origins and development of attachment theory ... Counsellors will find much of value.' - Bereavement Care

`An excellent bringing together of wider views on the attachment process' - K Buckley, Salford College of Further Education
