Book Reviews of The Neuroscience of Human Relationships: Attachment and the Developing Social Brain

Book Review: biology and psychology fit together!
Summary: 5 Stars

I am studying infant and child development, and appreciate and enjoy how two fields that normally don't speak the same language come together in this book. The author discusses how parts of the brain work, how hormones play a role, and how these biological substrates can help in understanding the attachment process. This is a useful addition to the typical descriptions of attachment at the "whole organism" level.

Summary of The Neuroscience of Human Relationships: Attachment and the Developing Social Brain

A visual exploration of how the brain develops throughout our lives.

Just as neurons communicate through mutual stimulation, brains strive to connect with one another. Louis Cozolino shows us how brains are highly social organisms. Balancing cogent explanation with instructive brain diagrams, he presents an atlas of sorts, illustrating how the architecture and development of brain systems—from before birth through adulthood—determine how we interact with others.
