How do human beings develop and function in relation to the human and natural world? The science of dynamic systems focuses on connections and relationships between people rather than on individual actions alone. This collection of engaging, non-technical essays, written by dynamic systems scientists in psychology, biology, anthropology, education, and sociology, challenges us to consider novel ways to enhance human development worldwide in the face of poverty, violence, neglect, disease and crises in our families. Focusing specifically on how to think about interventions and policies that will benefit human development from a systems perspective, this book brings research into the realm of application and policy. The authors use real-life examples to propose changes in clinical, educational and policy-making practices that will be of interest to professionals and practitioners alike.

More About the Author
Alan Fogel is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. He is the recipient of numerous teaching and research awards, a fellow of the American Psychological Association, and has been a Fulbright Fellow. He has been an active contributor to research on social and emotional development in early childhood for the past 33 years.
Because of his interest in how infants develop in a socio-sensory-emotional world, Fogel's clinical practice is not psychotherapy but rather Rosen Method Bodywork (www.rosenmethod.org). This is a treament modality for adults combining touch and talk with the goal of enhancing client embodied self-awareness. On the basis of his clinical experience, research work, and scholarly investigations, Fogel's new book, The Psychophysiology of Self-Awareness: Rediscovering the Lost Art of Body Sense, builds upon his previous books such as Developing through Relationships and Change Processes in Relationships, to create a scientifically informed view of how our ability (or lack of it) to connect with our own bodies is regulated via our interactions with significant others.
