In addition to elucidating a most significant phase in the early development of the self it clarifies what is involved in gender identification, an area in which presently there is a great deal "of confusion with disastrous consequences for all too many who suffer the life-long consequences of their inability to form clear gender identities. This book should help a great deal to achieve clarity about this issue...it additionally vastly increases our understanding of anorexia nervosa, an affliction from which more and more young people suffer and from which many die whose lives could be saved by applying the insights contained in this important book. I only hope it will receive the wide attention it so well deserves." - Bruno Bettelheim. ISBN 0231059442
