Here, the American pediatrician whose book Baby and Child Care of 1946 remains one of the best-selling volumes in history makes his definitive statement for adults. Drawing on his unique background to link moral considerations to psychological truths, he traces from childhood the development of habits and attitudes that sour every aspect of our daily lives - from destructive rivalry between men and woman that impairs the dignity and pleasure of sexuality to the loss of idealism that results in racial strife and war.
