Diary of a Baby: What Your Child Sees, Feels, and Experiences

"As a parent (or prospective parent); a student of human development, psychology, biology, sociology; a counsellor or psychoanalyst; this book is simply essential reading. A combination of clear scientific explanation, lyrical interpretation and links to real life, this book is a charming one-off in its style and execution."

"Daniel Stern is a world expert on infant development and
psychiatry, as well as an iconoclastic and creative theorist.
This book is a lucid and poetic presentation of his theories,
accessible to the layman and full of treasures for the
professional. It is the form of a set of small vignettes from
significant stages in the devellopment of a little boy, Joey.
The poetry is necessary because much of the concepts refer to
pre-verbal stages of development, and it works very well. This
book is a good companion read to _The interpersonal world of
the infant_ which presents the ideas from a technical point
of view, with the supporting scientific evidence."
