Portada
Robin Anderson, Anna Dartington
Taylor & Francis, 1998 - 178 páginas
Based on the wealth of experience gathered in the forty-year history of the Tavistock Clinic's Adolescent Department, "Facing It Out" offers both clinical and theoretical perspectives in examining a range of difficult areas in adolescent development, including gender identity issues, eating disorders, learning disabilities, trauma from sexual abuse, suicidal behavior, and psychosis. The book also provides a conceptual framework of normal adolescence and traces the difficulties that arise when this goes wrong. The editors have brought together a distillation of the work of many distinguished clinicians, giving an important insight into the style and theoretical basis of one of the most outstanding adolescent clinical departments today.
Contributors: Robin Anderson, Jonathan Bradley, Steve Briggs, Anna Dartington, Helene Dubinsky, Richard Graham, Lynda Miller, Elizabeth Oliver-Bellasis, Paul Upson, Margot Waddell, and Gianna Williams.
