The Unconscious Body Image

First time that this book will appear in English. Dolto is a popular figure in child psychoanalysis, and of interest to Lacanians because of her close friendship with Lacan. Dolto’s medical training and extensive work in paediatrics gave her a perhaps unique view of the links between the individual’s physical and psychic development, and her writings are of particular interest in the field of psychosomatics and the psycho-social development of children.
