  Attachment from Infancy to Adulthood provides unique and valuable firsthand accounts of the most important longitudinal studies of attachment. It presents new insights on a range of research programs that have broadened our understanding of attachment, in and outside of the family context, and its role in individual adaptation throughout life. In addition to discussing the pivotal findings that emerged from each study, a number of leading investigators offer rare reflections on the process of scientific discovery. Themes addressed include the complexities of designing studies that span years or even decades; challenges in translating theoretical constructs into age-appropriate assessments; the ways in which Bowlby's original models have been refined and elaborated; and how attachment interacts with other key variables that shape individual developmental trajectories.
