The Routledge Handbooks of Attachment provide a uniquely detailed yet accessible approach to attachment written by an international range of experts. "The clear explanations and terminology make the volumes readily accessible to higher degree students, psychology practitioners and researchers alike. As such, they provide an important contribution to the field that will be not only appreciated but regarded as essential reading by all those with an ongoing interest in the development and communication of psychological understanding about children's attachment."- Janene Swalwell, The Australian Educational and Developmental Psychologist
