Paperback. Zustand: Good. An analysis of the use of the mirror as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool for children and adolescents. Dr. Paulina F. Kernberg, the founder of a clinical program for children of divorced families at New York Presbyterian/Westchester Hospital, was an authority on personality disorders and on the emotional effects of divorce on children. She was one of the experts appointed to evaluate the custody case of Elián González in 2000.
