Recenzii

“Hollway delves into the complexity of maternalidentity to shed light on a deeply subjective time of human existence gravelyoverlooked in the masculine research domains of mental and physical health andmedicine. … Hollway offers researchers and helping professionals a place tostart in the development of a psychosocial approach to researching the lessevident realms of human intra-and intersubjectivity. … Hollway’s book isremarkable and ground breaking.” (Aparna Mishra, Univeristy of Durham, Centrefor Medical Humanities, centreformedicalhumanities.org, January, 2016)
'In Knowing Mothers, Wendy Hollway reflects deeply about the connection between how we live mothering and how we think about it. She invites us to witness her journey of discovery as she develops an innovative, multi-layered research approach that integrates psychoanalytic insights with qualitative empirical methods. In the process, she portrays the women whose lives she explores in ways that are textured, moving, and real.' - Daphne de Marneffe, author of Maternal Desire: On Children, Love, and the Inner Life
'Wendy Hollway's is a singular voice in psychosocial studies: lucid, provocative, pedagogic and accessible. Working with a unique data set of psychoanalytically informed observations and interviews documenting the first year of new motherhood, this book provides a series of exemplars showing how theory and method can be put to work in the project of knowing mothers and researching maternal becoming. Essential reading for all those interested in psychoanalytically informed social research methods as well as the growing interdisciplinary field of maternal studies.' - Rachel Thomson, University of Sussex, UK
