This book presents a novel psychoanalytic and psychotherapeutic method which enables expectant mothers to establish communication with their unborn babies.

After an exploration of the root aspects of pre- and perinatal psychology and psychoanalysis, details of the practice of prenatal bonding analysis are introduced. The volume concludes with 15 interviews where mothers who experienced the bonding analysis give first-hand accounts of their encounters.

With its theoretical, practical and testimonial threefold structure, the book aims at reaching out to both specialists and a general readership, especially prospective parents.
