Multidisciplinary authors pay homage to Brazelton (b. 1918), a pediatrician whose systems theory of development (Touchpoints) greatly influenced early childhood care and education. Lester (psychiatry, human behavior, and pediatrics, Brown U. Alpert Medical School/Women & Infants Hospital) and Sparrow (Brazelton Touchpoints Center; Children's Hospital Boston; psychiatry, Harvard Medical School) introduce 31 chapters that present advances building on his ideas. For example, contributors discuss an extension of Brazelton's Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale, which led to rethinking of neonatal intensive care, and his contributions to child-friendly hospitals and such programs as Educare. The volume includes a biographical sketch of Brazelton, infant state-related behavior charts, photos showing the mother-infant relationship in chimpanzees, and further reading.
