Reviews and Endorsements
'M.J. Maher makes an outstanding contribution which clearly reflects the insights of my father, John Bowlby, and his groundbreaking work on Attachment Theory. Maher's seminal work has thoroughly caught the spirit of how disrupted family bonds combined with racial discrimination can create such a lasting impact. I commend this book to all those involved in this most important field.'
- Sir Richard Bowlby
'We must read this impressive book. Here we have a serious attempt to change the psychoanalytic world. There is a bridging across from the psychotherapeutic context to qualitative research, and links are made with approaches to subjectivity in psychoanalysis. This is also "action research", for it aims to change the world at the same time as it interprets it.'
- Professor Ian Parker, Department of Psychology, Manchester Metropolitan University
