About the author

Françoise Dolto was a French pediatrician and psychoanalyst, famous for her research on babies and childhood. Dolto revolutionized the field of psycho-therapeutic work with babies (notably in their early experience and usage of language through their body), with the mother-baby dyad, and with a more positive observation and understanding of the means of communication used by children with learning or social disabilities.

She worked with Jacques Lacan, and said that children have a language before the language (with the body). She has contributed to the question of the unconscious body image, and influenced among others the work of Maud Mannoni.

As a recognized feminist, she also worked on reconciling women with their sexuality; she also analyzed the attitude of children when their parents are separating or divorcing.

Françoise Dolto was the mother of Carlos (1943–2008), a singer; and the sister of Jacques Marette, a minister.

Reviews

[Sheziss · Rating 4 out of 5]

El caso de un adolescente que ha estado toda su vida dando tumbos con su psicosis, confundida por todos con discapacidad intelectual, hasta que llega a la consulta de Dolto. Genial análisis.

[ηλίας · Rating 5 out of 5]

«"Je vous écris tout cela pour vous donner un exemple du changement de son comportement ; non seulement il a continué, malgré l’école, à être empressé, affectueux et serviable à la maison avec moi, mais aussi avec sa sœur. Ma fille n’en revient pas. Lui, qui ne pensait à dire ni bonjour, ni bonsoir, nous embrasse maintenant chaque soir." 

Au reçu de toutes ces nouvelles, je me suis dit : le garçon a senti qu’on allait toucher à ses structures profondes, et il se défend maintenant d’une autre façon.»

Reads like a detective novel. Thrilling.

Necesario en la formación de analistas infantiles.

[Ian Bys · Rating 5 out of 5]

Un analisis excepcional en donde podemos visualizar el juego en torno a la ley de prohibición del incesto y la amenaza de castración.
