Berry Brazelton, pediatra de fama mundial, experto en el desarrollo infantil y creador de la Escala de Evaluación Conductual Neonatal, y Bertrand Cramer, pionero de la psicoterapia materno-infantil, aportan a esta obra singular los conocimientos adquiridos a lo largo de varias décadas de investigación e intensa práctica profesional. Por primera vez se combina plenamente la investigación sobre la conducta del recién nacido y sobre la interacción entre éste y sus padres con los descubrimientos psicoanalíticos sobre las emociones y fantasías de los padres.Los autores brindan una vívida descripción de las fantasías y deseos narcisistas que han experimentado los padres en su niñez y de los que con el transcurso del tiempo nace su deseo de tener un hijo, y muestran cómo esos sentimientos originan un fuerte apego por el niño en gestación. Luego el del recién nacido estimula las fantasías, deseos y expectativas de los padres, lo que lleva a la formación del vínculo paterno-infantil. Basándose en las investigaciones más recientes, explican cómo participa el niño en esa relación y cuáles son los ingredientes de la comunicación y la interacción tempranas. A continuación describen las que confieren significado y dramatismo a cada gesto y expresión. Los padres ven al niño como , como o como la reencarnación de algunas relación perdida.En la parte final los autores utilizan su singular perspectiva combinada para analizar nueve historias de casos extraídas de su propia práctica. Tanto los padres como los profesionales que se ocupan de las madres y sus bebés -pediatras, psicólogos clínicos y evolutivos, psiquiatras, especialistas en la niñez temprana, enfermeras y trabajadores sociales- encontrarán en este libro una inapreciable ayuda.

(Clinics in Developmental Medicine No. 190 * Fourth editio...)
Clinics in Developmental Medicine No. 190 * Fourth edition of the most comprehensive examination of newborn behavior available * Well established and used globally as a research instrument and in clinical practice * Case studies from a range of disciplines and settings enrich this edition * New administration guidelines and refined scoring criteria for researchers and clinicians The Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) is the most comprehensive examination of newborn behaviour available today and has been used in clinical and research settings around the world for more than 35 years. The scale assesses the newborn's behavioral repertoire with 28 behavioral items and also includes an assessment of the infant's neurological status on 20 items. The NBAS items cover the following domains of neonatal functioning: autonomic regulation; motor organization; state organization and regulation and attention/social interaction. The first part of this new edition book describes in detail the procedures involved in administering and scoring the NBAS. This is followed by chapters setting the assessment in the context of psychological influences around birth, the relationship between the examiner, infant and parents, and what we know about newborn motor behaviour. After a chapter on the use of the NBAS in research settings, the final part comprises descriptions by professionals around the world of its use in clinical practice. Since the time it was first published, the NBAS has been used in hundreds of studies to examine the effects of a wide range of pre- and perinatal variables. This new edition therefore contains an updated review of research using the NBAS. Because the NBAS is being used increasingly as a way of promoting a positive relationship between parent and child, the new edition also includes new guidelines for clinicians. New guidelines and numerous refinements in the administration and scoring have now been added, and a section describing advances in our understanding of motor behaviour has been added. Finally, new chapters present the uses of the NBAS in a range of contexts around the world, highlighting the wide range of research and clinical applications of the NBAS. Readership: Paediatricians, neonatologists, all those involved in the examination of the newborn infant including, for example, nurses, psychologists, infancy specialists, lactation consultants, home visitors, occupational therapists, physical therapists, early intervention specialists, social workers and other allied health professionals (all of whom attend NBAS training courses)

T. Berry Brazelton, America's most highly regarded and deeply valued pediatrician, is a national treasure. Millions of parents and physicians have used and praised his groundbreaking books on infancy, parenthood, and early childhood. What Every Baby Knows is without question Brazelton's most exciting and valuable book. In What Every Baby Knows, Dr. Brazelton takes five families and really opens the doors of their private lives. In the course of the family histories and in the follow-up visits that Brazelton pays to each family two years later, we come to know these parents and children as individuals -- their stubborn worries, their struggles to adapt to change, their successes at resolving problems. These family histories serve as the framework for Brazelton's illuminating discussions of such crucial family issues as: --sibling rivalry -- divorced parents -- prematurity -- colic -- encouraging independence -- late speech development, and more What Every Baby Knows offers every reader answers to their questions about the real, day-to-day issues that his or her own family faces. The problems Brazelton identifies in the lives of his five families are the universal problems of family life. And the resolutions he describes are as reassuring as they are workable in all family situations. What Every Baby Knows will help all families share the rewards and happiness of life together.

(COMPASSIONATE, WISE ADVICE ON THE TOUGHEST PROBLEMS FACIN...)
COMPASSIONATE, WISE ADVICE ON THE TOUGHEST PROBLEMS FACING PARENTS TODAY. In this invaluable source of information and inspiration, Dr. T. Berry Brazelton shares the insight, strength, and sheer love of children that have made him a national treasure. Families today are in transition and the parents of young children can no longer simply look to the experiences of their own parents for guidance in our rapidly changing world. Drawing on the experiences of five of the real families who appeared on his cable television series “What Every Baby Knows,” Dr. Brazelton now tackles such contemporary issues and crises as divorce and stepparenting, the involved father, parental rivalry, grandparenting, infertility, loss of a parent, adoption, and illness in the family. Dr. Brazelton illustrates each issue dramatically, giving us an intimate look at the lives and hearts of the families involved. After drawing deft, vivid profiles of the parents, children, and grandparents, Brazelton shows how each crisis upsets the stability of the family, how each member copes with the problem, and, most importantly, how the family as a whole eventually regains its balance and continues to grow. In the concluding chapter, “When to Seek Help,” Brazelton offers his advice on when, why, and how an overwhelmed family can reach out for professional assistance in crisis-solving. In analyzing these crises and pointing to solutions, Brazelton writes with the warm reassurance and candor that have made him a trusted guide for parents and physicians alike. “Wise and instructive.”—Publishers Weekly “Brazelton’s suggestions on communication, time management, and family life are genuinely helpful.”—Booklist
