Books by Betty M Flint

The thesis of the book is that mental health in infancy is derived from a close dependent relationship with a mother-figure who gives a child an opportunity to form a dependent trust in her care and affection.

This volume is the carefully documented story of the development of a group of children from infancy through early adolescence, exhibiting the effects of severe institutional deprivation in their early lives.

This book is the first portion of a study of the Neil McNeil Home children.
