Ruki myl?Roditel'skii opyt velikikh psikhologov - Koen Dzhoel

Parents often look for answers to questions about parenting in books written by psychologists. But were the founders of scientific theories of the child's development good parents? David Cohen, in his study, based on letters, diaries, autobiographies and interviews, compares the ideas of great psychologists about raising children with how they raised their own offspring. The author tells about the family life of 11 scientists, including psychoanalysts Freud and Jung, naturalist Darwin, founder of age psychology Bowlby, and the famous Dr. Spoke. Was Jean Piaget, the greatest child psychologist of the 20th century, the only person who tried to psychoanalyze his mother? Who else but Ronald Laing's son had to rescue his famous father from the police station? And why did Melanie Klein's daughter wear red boots on the day of her mother's death? A non-banal view of the history of the formation of psychology as a science will be interesting not only to experts, but also to a wide range of readers.
