The Psychoanalysis of Children

THE PSYCHO-YSIS OF CHILDREN, first published in 1932, is a classic in its subject, and revolutionised child ysis. Melanie Klein had already proved, by the special technique she devised, that she was an pioneer in that branch of ysis. She made possible the extension of psychoysis to the field of early childhood, and in this way not only made the treatment of young children possible but also threw new light on psychological development in childhood and on the roots of adult neuroses and psychoses.
