Growth and Risk in Infancy

I like Briggs' way of conceptualising some aspects of development. His concepts of ""container shape"" and ""grip relations"" are exciting... Its subject is exciting and the method described has great potential... a glimpse of some interesting possibilities, which should be explored further [are given]. Growth and Risk in Infancy should be read by researchers of infancy who have an interest in a naturalistic and qualitative approach to the topic. It will also be of interest to those working in the psychoanalytic tradition with parents and babies.
