"In the flood of recent books on the newer and popular aspects of analytical psychology, the opinion is unanimously expressed, that most of the nervous and mental disorders of adult life can be traced back to some error in the management of the very early years of childhood. In view of this consensus of opinion, it has been disappointing to find so little in the way of concrete suggestions to parents, in these books written avowedly for the laity, either as to what they should do, or what they should avoid doing. It has not been possible to find a book to recommend to inquiring fathers and mothers, in a practice devoted exclusively to children and their problems in health and in disease, which would do two simple things: first, give in clear, understandable terms an explanation of the cardinal principles of the newer psychology; and then, apply these principles in such a manner as would enable parents the better to understand their own children. This book has been written to supply such a need. If it makes the task of parenthood easier, it will have justified its existence. If not, it will have failed, no matter how readable an exposition of the principles of the newer psychology it may present"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
