Description: America's baby doctor tells the inspiring story behind a half century of caring for, understanding, and championing children. From his childhood in Waco, Texas to Princeton University, to medical and psychoanalytic training, and to the observations into newborn behavior that led to babies being seen in an entirely new light, the doctor's life has been one of innovation and caring. Known for the Touchpoints theory of regression and growth in infants and young children, he is also credited for bringing the insights of child development into pediatrics.
Notes: "A Merloyd Lawrence Book."
