Description: This book examines how experiences of separation and loss influence human development over the life span. It presents the insights and research of leading clinicians and scholars on how a range of events- divorce, daily parental absences, moves to new neighborhoods and schools, and other separation experiences- can shape an individual's reactions later in life to such occurrences as leaving a job, terminating psychotherapy, or coping with death. -- Publisher description.
