The Developing Mind: Toward a Neurobiology of Interpersonal Experience

This book goes beyond the nature and nurture divisions that traditionally have constrained much of our thinking about development, exploring the role of interpersonal relationships in forging key conn...ections in the brain. Daniel J. Siegel presents a groundbreaking 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. Illuminating how and why neurobiology matters, this book is essential reading for clinicians, educators, researchers, and students interested in human experience and development across the life span The book contains no figures. Illuminating how and why neurobiology matters, this book integrates the latest findings from the fields of attachment research, memory, emotion, neuroscience, genetic research, and child psychopathology. Siegel sets forth a compelling new framework for understanding the human mind and its development. How do interpersonal experiences shape the structure and function of the brain? How does brain activity affect what we feel, know, and remember? From neurons and brain circuitry to parent-child communication, the book explores how mental functioning emerges within the context of emotionally connected relationships. Readers gain a scientific foundation for understanding how specific emotional and social experiences can help or hinder development, foster well-being and resilience, and build the cognitive abilities essential for effective learning to take place. A wealth of clinical case examples and observational vignettes enhance the volume's utility.
