Harvard University Press Taming the Troublesome Child
Book SynopsisIn her examination of juvenile misconduct, Kathleen Jones reveals the complex history of “child guidance,” a specialized psychological service developed early in the twentieth century which prompted our reliance on psychological explanations for juvenile offenses and ultimately lead to a harsh critique of American mothers.Trade ReviewIn Taming the Troublesome Child, Kathleen W. Jones provides an eloquent, erudite account of how, during the first half of this century, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers banded together as a child guidance team to claim sole authority in understanding the causes of and cures for problematic behavior...Her account is well written, informative, interesting, and intelligent. -- Daniel J. Kindlon * New England Journal of Medicine *This book forced me to consider American culture and the development of the Child Guidance Movement in the first half of the 20th century...I realised that the very basis of my existence as an EP [educational psychologist] was being questioned...[This book] raises issues about role, identity and the nature and origination of troublesome behaviour in a way that deserves thoughtful reflection by all EPs. The notion that we have to invent our own roles and then have to find ways of justifying our existence within the reality we have created, in a shilling society, is pertinent to us all. I am grateful to Kathleen Jones that I was offered the opportunity to reflect upon my role as a psychologist in society. -- Jan Passmore * Division of Educational & Child Psychology Newsletter *Using the records of Boston's Judge Baker Guidance Center from 1920 to 1945, Jones tells a complex story of how the child guidance movement, staffed by teams of physicians, psychiatrists, and social workers, became the authority for treatment of troublesome youth...Taming the Troublesome Child is a superbly researched, clearly written book that makes an important contribution to the history of child welfare, family, psychiatry, professionalization, and gender. -- E. W. Carp * Choice *A beautifully researched, clearly written study of the psychological turn in American child-rearing, this book will interest clinicians as well as historians. By looking at the evolution of the 'troublesome child,' Jones explores why psychological explanations and regimens gained such appeal among American parents and professional experts in the first half of the twentieth century. Particularly impressive are Jones's efforts to include children themselves as actors in the historical narrative and her insights into 'mother blaming' as an American passtime. A first-rate contribution to the field. -- Nancy Tomes, State University of New York at Stony BrookThrough the lens of the famous Judge Baker Center for Children in Boston, founded in 1917, Kathleen Jones tells the fascinating story of the evolution of care and concern for troubled and troublesome young people in the United States. She shows how therapy has been hostage to the nature-nurture debate, conflict and cooperation among psychiatry, psychology, and social work, and the struggle for preeminent authority in the plan of action for a case by the family, the court, medical, social service, and educational institutions. Finally, she shows how the family lost ground in the power struggle as mothers became the focus of popular attempts to explain maladaptations by children. -- Charles V. Willie, Harvard Graduate School of EducationIn this provocative and seminal work, Kathleen Jones illuminates the ambivalent responses of American society to young offenders. She analyzes with sensitivity the interactions among juveniles, parents, and a variety of professional groups. In the end, child guidance became a framework for the ordering of age relationships as well as a symbol of the ambiguity of psychiatric authority. This book should be required reading for all those interested in the history of childhood and the development of the professions. -- Gerald N. GrobTaming the Troublesome Child weaves together an intellectual history of child psychiatry, a cultural analysis of ideas about children and childhood, and a perceptive discussion of the day-to-day workings of one of the nation's premier child guidance clinics. Jones shows definitively that psychiatric mother-blaming pre-dated 'momism' and the pop Freudian psychology of the 1950s. Remarkable for its many insights into the cultural as well as intellectual roots of current thinking about children's misbehavior, this elegant book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in family history or psychology--and for anyone who has a child. -- Molly Ladd-Taylor, York UniversityI found this an exceptionally shrewd, careful, and thought-provoking book. Dr. Jones reads institutional records well and uses the rich case-study materials available at Judge Baker incisively; and she places all this intelligently and sometimes gracefully into a larger social-historical context. One learns much from this book on a first reading, and it will prove a useful book to have on one's shelf. -- John Modell, Center for the Study of Human Development, Brown UniversityTaming the Troublesome Child resonates with issues relevant for sociologists Much of the book reads, moreover, like a constructionist treatise in social problem development, as claimsmakers endeavored to typify their particular versions of the problem child. Processes of popularization involved in extending the child guidance message, cultural acceptance of that message, and the related legitimating of the emerging profession and rhetoric of child psychiatry are also sociological nuggets embedded in the larger historical text. Taming the Troublesome Child is well written, minutely detailed, and scholarly in execution. -- Michele A.

The writing is concise and simple, although the subject is complex and weighty. With picturesque nosology, Dr. Lawson writes about the waif, hermit, queen, and witch mothers. Her unique examination of borderline mothers and how they relate to their children culminates in a discussion of what can be done for both from an interpersonal perspective. Replete with clinical vignettes, this book is entertaining as well as informative. -- Peter L. GiovacchiniThis well-researched and beautifully written book presents in graphic, specific, clinical detail overwhelming evidence to resolve any ambiguity about the relationship of the borderline mother to her children. The many faces of the borderline mother are nicely differentiated and described. Dr. Lawson also provides guidelines on how to manage a relationship with a borderline mother constructively. A helpful read for all therapists who work with borderline patients. -- James F. MastersonMasked by a smile, behind the pinafore of maternal attachment, lurks a borderline mother. Dr. Lawson offers a compelling portrait of mothers who project massive states of confusion and terror into their children. She presents a variety of mothers, including the make-believe mother, the fairy tale mother, the queen and witch mother, along with specific clinical suggestions for dealing with each type. This spellbinding contribution to the literature provides effective treatment procedures for therapists working within the spectrum of borderline phenomenology. -- Joan LachkarChildhood lived with a borderline mother results in an unspeakable tragedy. Few of the child's developmental needs are met because the mother cannot be a parent. Consequently, the child is programmed for a lifelong struggle against failure. For over twenty years, people have shared their own agonizing stories with me, looking to my journey for a sense of hope. The compassionate understanding and professional assistance in this book are a road map out of failure. -- Christina CrawfordTable of ContentsChapter 1 Make-Believe Mothers Chapter 2 The Darkness Within Chapter 3 The Waif Mother Chapter 4 The Hermit Mother Chapter 5 The Queen Mother Chapter 6 The Witch Mother Chapter 7 Make-Believe Children Chapter 8 Fairy-Tale Fathers Chapter 9 Loving the Waif Without Rescuing Her Chapter 10 Loving the Hermit Without Feeding Her Fear Chapter 11 Loving the Queen Without Becoming Her Subject Chapter 12 Living with the Witch Without Becoming Her Victim Chapter 13 Living Backwards

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Development of Language Studies in
Book SynopsisThis book presents a general overview of our current knowledge of language development in children. All the principal strands of language development are covered, including phonological, lexical, syntactic and pragmatic development; bilingualism; precursors to language development in infancy; and the language development of children with developmental disabilities, including children with specific language impairment. Written by leading international authorities, each chapter summarises clearly and lucidly our current state of knowledge, and carefully explains and evaluates the theories which have been proposed to account for children''s development in that area.Trade Review`This edited volume is a stimulating collection of theoretically-oriented review papers which includes contributions from some of the leading researchers in the field. As such, it will make a useful book of readings for an intermediate or advanced level course on language development. Moreover, since some of the papers are eminently citeable in their own right, it is also likely to be widely read by other Researchers in the field.' - Julian Pine, University of Nottingham`This is an up-to-date, important and exciting book that deserves a prominent position on the bookshelves of all researchers who are interested in child language ... The contributors to this book not only report and evaluate many of the exciting findings of the field, but also ask themselves searching questions that no doubt will stimulate research over the next few years.' - Professor Gina Conti-Ramsden, University of Manchester'Martyn Barrett has done an excellent job of bringing together a series of chapters, which offer a coherent coverage of the area. The chapters cover a broad range of topics, including important areas conventionally not covered in such texts, e.g. sign language, and atypical devlopment. The clearly written introduction serves both to introduce the book in a useful fashion and will, no doubt, serve as a framework to the area for many lecturers.' - Dr Julie Dockrell, South Bank University`Provides a welcome helping hand for anyone trying to unite theoretical approaches across the many facets of language development presented in this detailed and illuminating collection of papers.' - Josie Briscoe, Child Psychology and Psychiatry'This book is impressive for its up-to-date coverage of a broad range of topics in language development. It certainly sent me running to update my students' reading lists to include several of its chapters.' - Ann Dowker, University of Oxford, International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders'This book is a welcome retrospective of some key findings in psycholinguistics in the 20th century.' - Julia Gillen, Manchester Metropolitan University, in Journal of Early Childhood Literacy'This volume offers a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in the field of language acquisition.' - Rita Brdar-Szabo, Pragmatics: Quarterly Publication of the International Pragmatics Association' a rich introduction to the domain of child language development [ ] Barrett does a very good job in addressing every single issue crucial to understanding the debate about how children learn their mother tongue, and along with his authors he should be commended on presenting a balanced and therefore rich overview of the main questions, models, processes and achievements in researching child language acquisition.' - Dorit Ravid, Tel Aviv University, Journal of Child LanguageTable of Contents1: A Introduction to the Nature of Language and to the Central Themes and Issues in the Study of Language M.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Maturational Processes and the Facilitating
Book SynopsisDonald Winnicott (1896-1971) was trained in paediatrics, a profession that he practised to the end of his life, in particular at the Paddington Green Children's Hospital. He began analysis with James Strachey in 1923, became a member of the British Psychoanalytical Society in 1935, and twice served as its President. He was also a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and of the British Psychological Society. The collection of papers that forms The Maturational Processes and the Facilitating Environment brings together Dr Winnicott's published and unpublished papers on psychoanalysis and child development during the period 1957-1963. It has, as its main theme, the carrying back of the application of Freud's theories to infancy. Freud showed that psycho-neurosis has its point of origin in the interpersonal relationships of the first maturity, belonging to the toddler age. Dr Winnicott explores the idea that mental hospital disorders relate to failures of development in infancy.

This book serves as an administration companion, interpretation guide, reference book, and critical review of the WISC-V.” - Todd L. Chmielewski, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62, No. 26. "The book is overflowing with strengths, setting itself apart from other books on the WISC-V for several reasons. The most important one is the truly impressive history, knowledge, and experience the lead author has with the WISC, beginning with the WISC–Revised (WISC-R) and his relationship with David Wechsler. Alan Kaufman’s unique perspective with the history and development of the WISC allows the readers a unique viewpoint in understanding why changes were made or how decisions were decided in the development of the fifth generation of this test. Additional strengths of the text include the broadness of topics covered, application of various theoretical orientations to understanding and interpreting the test, and a summary of critiques by experts in the field. When attempting to developing critical thinking skills, few books provide the plethora of opinions and viewpoints from theoretically dissimilar experts that allows a reader to evaluate the various theories and approaches in a manner like this book does."—review from The Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment Ronald S.
