Mother-Infant Bonding: A Scientific Fiction

Mother-Infant Bonding: A Scientific Fiction





Although recent research has discredited the idea that mothers and their infants must be physically close for up to a year after birth for "bonding" to take place, many pediatricians, nurses, and others still blame mothers` inability to "bond" for all manner of social and physical problems of their offspring. In this absorbing book, Diane E. Eyer traces the history of the bonding myth, explaining its persistent popularity and showing how it reflects a disturbing tendency in our society to accept "scientific" research without question-and without awareness that it can be distorted by professional agendas and public demands.
