THE PSYCHOLOGY OF BIRTH
by Leslie Feher, Ph.D.
(1980)

Published in 1980, the author re-examines classical theories on stages of emotional development and shows how problems in later life are traceable not simply to the first few years but back to birth and the womb
|
Must reading for Psychologists, Psychotherapists and anyone interested in childbirth
|
"Every individual comprises all that came before birth and all that follows. Birth is only the bridge to a new dimension, in which a revolution of perception, feeling, thinking, being, engulfs the child. It is a passage that can lead to depression or elation, peace or insight. But it is a only one stage in a longer process through which the adult in each of us must be born. And this can happen only when the potential for freedom we initially only suspect, survives"
