| Abstract
|
:
|
This book demonstrates how psychoanalytic understanding and treatment can contribute to thinking about and working with adopted children and their families. It illustrates how psychoanalytic psychotherapy can help both as a treatment and as a distinctive source of understanding for children who are either in the process of being adopted or already adopted.
