Judith Asphar

An excellent reflection of human connection

Revisado: 07-07-20

There is so much to learn from this book! Its synthesis of evolving studies and inevitable life experiences reflects the importance of the quality of attention we give — and have received — helping us understand the breadth and depths of the crucial impact of attachment and connection from our earliest days and throughout our lives. At a time when what shapes us individually -- and thus what shapes society -- has to be better understood, Developmental Psychologist Dr Suzanne Zeedyk takes on some of the traps we homo-sapiens unwittingly get ourselves into! For all its very accessible and applicable scholarly and scientific seriousness one might wonder at the title of Sabre Tooth Tigers & Teddy Bears! And yes, it is a book for children -- written on their behalf -- but primarily a deeply informed perspective for parents and for those who who care for, teach, and care about children. Nowadays, neuroscience mirrors much about understanding the roots of human nature and the inevitable effects we have upon each other as it is laid out here by Dr. Zeedyk. Particularly at this time of collective trauma and with all today's uncertainty, to have her informed explanations as a grounded and grounding guidepost — outlined in 13 chapters —the better it is for children, for the child in us all -- and for the future.
