Vintage Book Child ADOPTION AND AFTER 1955 L Raymond
|
|
| Adoption and After, Louise Raymond, Harper & Row, 1955, hardcover with dust jacket, 238 pp incl index. |
|
A remarkably lucid and down-to-earth child-rearing book which has guided many generations of adoptive parents and will still be referred to again and again! Ms. Raymond never shirks from considering the worst that could happen -- not only with the adoption process, but with the development of the child after everything appears to have settled down. Her lengthy sections of adolescent child rearing make this a helpful guide for *any* parent, adoptive or biological. Not only will this book be valuable for parents because of its child care advice - which is excellent, even nearly 60 years later - but also for those adoptees who are now in their 50s and 60s, wondering about their own adoptions and upbringing. Ms. Raymond embodies the contemporary values and norms in place during the mid 1950s which affected parents' attitudes and behavior at that time. Here is a warm, reassuring book for the parents of adopted children of all ages. The author has drawn on her own experience and on interviews with other adoptive mothers...Such specialized problems as those which follow the adoption of an older child or a handicapped one are also considered.
Condition: The book is in very good condition: hardcovers are very bright and straight, pages clean and intact. Dust jacket has edge wear, repairs to the edges, and discoloration, especially on the back (shown). |
