Description

Does having pioneered scientific theories of child development make you a better parent? In this unique study, David Cohen explores the connection between psychological theory and actual parenting practices. This book investigates whether the experts truly practiced what they preached by comparing their published theories with their real-life experiences raising children. Using an eclectic variety of sources, including letters, diaries, autobiographies, biographies, and interview material, each chapter examines a key figure within their specific historical context. Readers will find many surprises as the text looks into the lives of famous figures. For example, the book explores whether Jean Piaget, a leading child psychologist of the 20th century, was the only man to attempt to psychoanalyse his own mother. This book is a fascinating look at the lives of historical figures and the reality of applying scientific theories to family life.
