Offers a thought-provoking introduction to recent developments in the psychology of birth and of human life before birth, for readers who want to understand the significance of their own birth experience. Demonstrates that how we are brought into the world can affect us for the rest of our lives and illustrates the impact of prenatal and birth experiences in individual symptoms and fantasy life as well as in the cultural production of myth, religion, literature, and art. Looks at empirical findings of science as well as research into birth and prebirth experiences through hypnosis, psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, and drug experiences.
