The Developing Mind: How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are

This book, for clinicians, educators, researchers, and anyone interested in human experience, goes beyond the nature and nurture divisions that have constrained much of our thinking about development. Siegel explores the role of interpersonal relationships in forging key connections in the brain. He presents a new way of thinking about the emergence of the human mind and the process by which each of us becomes a feeling, thinking, remembering individual.
