Préface de Francisco Palacio Espasa Postface de Pierre Delion Au début des années 1970, Terry Berry Brazelton, pédiatre américain, mit au point un outil d'observation clinique du nouveau-né que l'on connaît désormais sous le nom d'échelle de Brazelton. Aidé par sa formation psychanalytique et la connaissance qu'il avait des recherches sur les interactions précoces (très récentes à cette époque), il voulait inciter le monde médical, en particulier les pédiatres de maternité, à changer leur regard sur le nouveau-né et, par voie de conséquence, sur la famille en train de se constituer ou de se reconstituer autour de son arrivée. Dans cet ouvrage, Drina Candilis-Huisman dresse un bilan de l'inlassable activité de Brazelton au service du bébé et de sa famille qui se conclut par une interview inédite avec lui. Elle donne une vision précise, et relativement complète, de son travail et présente l'originalité de son échelle d'observation des capacités précoces des nouveau-nés, qui, partagée avec les jeunes parents, favorise une prévention efficace des troubles relationnels. Témoignant de son expérience, elle montre que cet outil trouve des...

Mother-infant Bonding

Autor: Diane E. Eyer

Número de Páginas: 252

Guilt abounds among women who are unable, for whatever reason - illness of mother or child, premature birth, adoption - to experience the required period of bonding with their babies. In this absorbing book, Diane E. Eyer traces the history of the bonding myth and explains its continuing popularity despite its demonstrated lack of validity. Most important, she shows how it reflects a disturbing tendency in our society to accept "scientific" research without question - and without awareness that it can be distorted by professional agendas and public demands. Eyer argues that the concept of bonding was developed at a time then hospitals were losing their appeal for many women who wanted to deliver their babies in birthing centers or at home. Hospitals seized on the bonding idea as a way to make their services more attractive to pregnant women and to reassert medical authority over the birthing process by regulating the bonding procedure

Raising America

Autor: Ann Hulbert

Número de Páginas: 465

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, millions of anxious parents have turned to child-rearing manuals for reassurance. Instead, however, they have often found yet more cause for worry. In this rich social history, Ann Hulbert analyzes one hundred years of shifting trends in advice and discovers an ongoing battle between two main approaches: a “child-centered” focus on warmly encouraging development versus a sterner “parent-centered” emphasis on instilling discipline. She examines how pediatrics, psychology, and neuroscience have fueled the debates but failed to offer definitive answers. And she delves into the highly relevant and often turbulent personal lives of the popular advice-givers, from L. Emmett Holt and Arnold Gesell to Bruno Bettelheim and Benjamin Spock to the prominent (and ever conflicting) experts of today.

Éthologie et développement de l'enfant

Autor: Richard Ernest Tremblay , Marc A. Provost , Floyd Francis Strayer

Número de Páginas: 482

Éthologie et développement de l'enfant : cet ouvrage est le premier en langue française, consacré à l'éthologie humaine pour la prime enfance et l'enfance préscolaire. Le terme d'« éthologie » (étymologiquement « science des mœurs ») a été primitivement employé par Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, en 1854, pour désigner l'étude du comportement des animaux « dans leur milieu naturel », par opposition à l'observation artificielle en laboratoire. Ainsi, l'animal a été vu sous un tout autre jour, dans la spontanéité de ses rapports avec ses congénères. Au cours des vingt dernières années, cette nouvelle psychologie animale a connu des progrès considérables, couronnés par l'attribution de trois prix Nobel en 1973 (K. Lorenz, N. Tinbergen, K. Von Frisch). Alors, encouragés par le succès, les chercheurs sont passés de l'animal à l'homme, notamment à l'observation des comportements du jeune enfant. Les vingt et un chapitres de ce livre sont rédigés par les meilleurs auteurs français, canadiens et américains, sur la base de leurs travaux personnels. Ces chapitres décrivent et analysent les multiples formes d'adaptation, de communication du tout jeune...

Tanto las que acaban de ser madres como las que lo van a ser en un futuro no demasiado lejano disponen hoy en día de datos suficientes sobre las etapas del embarazo, el parto y el posparto. Sin embargo, la lectura de este libro les proporcionará también una inmejorable panorámica del proceso psicológico interno que deberán atravesar antes de que nazca su bebé.» ETHEL SPECTOR PERSON, profesora de Psiquiatría Clínica en la Universidad de Columbia «A la vez ameno y profundo, este libro aborda con inteligencia las etapas que deben atravesar las nuevas madres en su camino hacia la maternidad. Se trata de una descripción global y detallada no sólo del proceso con el que cualquier madre deberá enfrentarse, sino también de lo que debe hacerse cuando las cosas no van tan bien como se esperaba. Y además, los padres...

Neurociencia para padres

Autor: Mona Delahooke

Número de Páginas: 451

Es comprensible que las familias busquen corregir los arrebatos emocionales, la desobediencia o las rabietas de los niños. Sin embargo, la doctora Delahooke propone un cambio radical de perspectiva: el comportamiento no es el problema sino el síntoma; una pista sobre lo que está sucediendo en la estructura fisiológica del niño. Neurociencia para padres ofrece un enfoque nuevo para la crianza basado tanto en la larga experiencia clínica de la doctora Delahooke como en las investigaciones más recientes en neurociencia y psicología infantil. En lugar del clásico enfoque centrado en el cerebro, nos invita a considerar el papel esencial de todo el sistema nervioso, generador de los sentimientos y los comportamientos de los niños. Si entendemos la biología subyacente al comportamiento, podremos dar a nuestros hijos los recursos que necesitan para crecer y prosperar, y construiremos una relación más feliz y conectada con ellos y una dinámica familiar más armoniosa.

Mother Brain

Autor: Chelsea Conaboy

Número de Páginas: 229

Health and science journalist Chelsea Conaboy explodes the concept of “maternal instinct” and tells a new story about what it means to become a parent. Conaboy expected things to change with the birth of her child. What she didn’t expect was how different she would feel. But she would soon discover what was behind this: her changing brain. Though Conaboy was prepared for the endless dirty diapers, the sleepless nights, and the joy of holding her newborn, she did not anticipate this shift in self, as deep as it was disorienting. Mother Brain is a groundbreaking exploration of the parental brain that untangles insidious myths from complicated realities. New parents undergo major structural and functional brain changes, driven by hormones and the deluge of stimuli a baby provides. These neurobiological changes help all parents—birthing or otherwise—adapt in those intense first days and prepare for a long period of learning how to meet their child’s needs. Pregnancy produces such significant changes in brain anatomy that researchers can easily sort those who have had one from those who haven't. And all highly involved parents, no matter their path to parenthood, develop...

Born in Cambridge

Autor: Karen Weintraub , Michael Kuchta

Número de Páginas: 420

Anne Bradstreet, W.E.B. Du Bois, gene editing, and Junior Mints: cultural icons, influential ideas, and world-changing innovations from Cambridge, Massachusetts. Cambridge, Massachusetts is a city of “firsts”: the first college in the English colonies, the first two-way long-distance call, the first legal same-sex marriage. In 1632, Anne Bradstreet, living in what is now Harvard Square, wrote one of the first published poems in British North America, and in 1959, Cambridge-based Carter’s Ink marketed the first yellow Hi-liter. W.E.B. Du Bois, Julia Child, Yo-Yo Ma, and Noam Chomsky all lived or worked in Cambridge at various points in their lives. Born in Cambridge tells these stories and many others, chronicling cultural icons, influential ideas, and world-changing innovations that all came from one city of modest size across the Charles River from Boston. Nearly 200 illustrations connect stories to Cambridge locations. Cambridge is famous for being home to MIT and Harvard, and these institutions play a leading role in many of these stories—the development of microwave radar, the invention of napalm, and Robert Lowell’s poetry workshop, for example. But many have no...

Cómo liberarse de una educación equivocada

Autor: Pablo De Jesús Romero

Número de Páginas: 258

En esta obra, se demuestra que el papel del subsistema escolar no consiste en centrarse en enseñar contenidos; por el contrario, el papel central de la escuela es el de formar seres humanos con cultura de la paz, autónomos, emancipados, críticos, creativos, emprendedores, con mentalidad científica, en permanente actualidad y capaces de administrar su propio saber. La comprensión de sí y del mundo que nos rodea en permanente evolución integral, liberados de prejuicios, racismo, homofobia, xenofobia y miedos innecesarios, es el futuro de la educación.

Freakonomics

Autor: Steven D. Levitt , Stephen J. Dubner

Número de Páginas: 384

En esta obra, Levitt y Dubner demuestran, a través de ejemplos y una sarcástica perspicacia, que la economía representa el estudio de los incentivos. ¿Qué resulta más peligroso: una pistola o una piscina? ¿Qué tienen en común un maestro de escuela y un luchador de sumo? ¿Por qué continúan los traficantes de drogas viviendo con sus madres? ¿En qué se parecen el Ku Kux Klan a los agentes inmobiliarios? Quizás éstas no sean las típicas preguntas que se formula un experto en economía, pero Steven D. Levitt y Stephen J. Dubner no son unos economistas muy típicos. Se trata de especialistas que estudian la esencia y los enigmas de la vida cotidiana y cuyas conclusiones, con frecuencia, ponen patas arriba la sabiduría convencional. A través de ejemplos prácticos y de una sarcástica perspicacia, Levitt y Dubner demuestran que la economía, en el fondo, representa el estudio de los incentivos: el modo en que las personas obtienen lo que desean, o necesitan, especialmente cuando otras personas desean o necesitan lo mismo.

Autor: John Rosemond , John K. Rosemond

Moby-Duck

Autor: Donovan Hohn

Número de Páginas: 440

When Donovan Hohn first heard the remarkable story of how 28,904 bath toys spilled into the Pacific en route to the US from China and have been washing up along beaches throughout the world ever since, he decided to find out more and assumed he would interview a few oceanographers, talk to some beachcombers and read up on Arctic science and geography. ‘ But questions can be like ocean currents: wade in too far, and they carry you away.’ Setting out on a series of journeys to track the renegade rubber ducks, Moby-Duck is an adventure into the heart of the sea through science, myth, the global economy and some of the worst weather imaginable, and the riveting story of an accidental odyssey which pulled Hohn into the secretive world of shipping conglomerates, the daring terrain of Arctic researchers, the lunatic risks of maverick sailors, and the shadowy domain of Chinese toy factories. With each new discovery, Hohn learns of another loose thread, and with each successive chase he comes closer to understanding where his castaway quarry comes from (and where it is heading… ). In the grand tradition of Tony Horwitz and David Quammen, Moby-Duck is a compulsively readable narrative ...

Le désir d'enfant

Autor: Marie Gaille

Número de Páginas: 102

La tradition philosophique accueille une interrogation récurrente sur le rôle joué par les désirs humains dans l’histoire politique et institutionnelle des sociétés. Le désir d’enfant est à la fois revendiqué comme part essentielle de la vie « intime » des sujets et pris dans des logiques publiques et collectives, objet d’intervention du pouvoir. L’analyse du désir d’enfant constitue un défi pour la réflexion philosophique. Que signifie-t-il ? Que vise-t-il ? Quelle est sa portée morale ? Au nom de quels principes peut-on fonder l’action politique à son propos ? Aucune de ces questions ne reçoit de réponse simple. Pour envisager le désir d’enfant, l’enquête s’appuie sur une lecture et une discussion du corpus psychanalytique consacré à la procréation, et discute la thèse de la liberté de procréation au profit d’une pensée, à la fois critique et normative, de la solidarité procréatrice.
