This book examines infant and early childhood mental health and the importance of early emotional and social development for later developmental trajectories. It incorporates research and clinical perspectives and brings research findings to bear in evaluating intervention strategies.

These forces include child factors, parental and familial variables, childrearing practices, and environmental influences.
