This ...Show synopsisDr Arnold Gesell's The Embryology of Behavior is one of the historical classics for all who are interested in child or human development. This amazing book, a documentation of his studies of the embryo, the fetus, the neonate and the infant, was first published in 1945. His observations on the growth of behavioural organization are reinforced by stunning cinematic photography, and record for us the bases for the maturation of motor behavior on which researchers and clinicians interested in infancy have built ever since. All of us depend on his concept of the maturation of the central nervous system as the clock' driving the baby's development. The map of this sequential development was accurately and sensitively laid out for us over 40 years ago. No one has been able to refute his observations even with the more refined research and analytic techniques of today. Since that time the concepts of individual differences, of temperament, and of the interaction between social, cognitive and motor lines of development have been added, but we still rely on Dr Gesell's established norms as the anchor.Hide synopsis

Greenacre (1894-1989), nee Thomas, graduated from Rush Medical College in 1916, then joined the Phipps Clinic at Hopkins under Adolf Meyer, first as a resident in psychiatry, then as staff member. She stayed at the Phipps for 12 years. She was one of the first women to publish a paper in the American Journal of Insanity [now Psychiatry], a 1918 paper on schizophrenia. In 1932 she started analytic training at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, graduating in 1937. She was appointed a training analyst in 1942 and from then on was an important figure in American psychoanalysis. She published a number of influential books, the two most important being her 1953 Affective Disorders and 1971 Emotional Growth. She was probably the first American-born and-trained woman analyst to secure an international reputation in psychoanalysis.
