This book demonstrates Klein's work in devising the techniques of child analysis. She made treatment of young children possible and threw light on psychological development in childhood and on the roots of adult neuroses and psychoses. Here she describes the theory and practice of her method. First published in 1922, this is a classic in its subject, and revolutionised child psychoanalysis.
