Publisher's summary

This highly influential work - now in a revised and expanded third edition incorporating major advances in the field - gives clinicians, educators, and students a new understanding of what the mind is, how it grows, and how to promote healthy development and resilience.

Daniel J. Siegel synthesizes cutting-edge research from multiple disciplines, revealing the ways in which neural processes are fundamentally shaped by interpersonal relationships throughout life. And even when early experiences are not optimal, building deeper connections to other people and to one's own internal experience remains a powerful resource for growth. Professors praise the book’s utility in courses from developmental psychology and child development to neuroscience and counseling.

Amazing!

Full of wisdom, insight and knowledge. Technical at times, but with some patience, fully accessible. A great read for anyone interested in learning more about themselves and the world.

Outstanding

A must read for educators and religious who can use the techniques and suggestions to guide our children/people to their full potential.

Saving my self

This book is saving my life and arising the self . Excitement, joy and curiosity . Thank you

This Changes Everything!

Loved this book! I really enjoyed the perspective of the author. Loved every part of it!

Some good stuff but too wordy

The writing was overly descriptive. There is good and interesting content but it was a struggle to get through all thirty hours of it when it could have been much shorter.

A complete overview of mind inside and out.

From anatomical, to neurological. From childhood trauma to parenthood skills. A thorough study of mind and behavior.

Life changing

I'm so grateful that this book exist in audio format. The book is very dense and academically challenging at times. Being able to listen while following along with the text was extremely helpful. The content of this book has changed how I view almost everything relational. The performance was difficult to follow at times due to odd pauses in the sentences. However, I grew accustomed to the reader over time. I wish Dan Siegel would record this book in his own voice. Highly recommend this book!

Excellent wording

A plethora of behavioral, anthropological, and neural books, read for 3years. This book tied it all together. Words I can use. thanks mr Siegel.

Great mind brain translation

Wonderful review of mind-brain interactions in an interpersonal context. Particularly enjoyed the idea that there are different self states with underlying connection networks.

description and preface is misleading

the description and preface are very misleading. that its an intro book and even ppl never subjected to the matter can understand. not true. i didnt understand anything. words and phrases never explained or made sense. book got harder and harder and never explained to the reader how the material translate to actual use. very misleading.
