Title: important
Review: Classic, vitally important work. The writing is just so simple and clear, and the topic just so important, this book is quite worthwhile reading for any student (in the broadest sense) of psychology. Bowlby is an original researcher on attachment between infants and their caregivers. He describes his own and others' research projects and analyzes them in a theoretical framework about instinctive behavior. Why would it be important for children to have attachments? What sorts of attachments would we expect them to have, and what do they have? These are questions Bowlby addresses.
