Abstract
In 1976, a new volume called Infant Psychiatry provided research and clinical readings that were relevant to infancy. Since that time, more has been learned about attachment, mother-infant interaction, the effects of parenting, genetic determination, and biologic deviance, to fill out the discipline of infant psychiatry. This article tracks our progress since then. Although the ranks of investigators remain small, the advance in knowledge has been remarkable, and the infant psychiatrist of the next generation will be better equipped to do primary and secondary prevention as well as remedial and therapeutic interventions based on firmer knowledge.
