Special Care Babies and their Developing Relationships" puts professionals in touch with how babies, their parents and the staff who care for them actually experience neonatal intensive care. The book explores institutional, cultural and family beliefs about prematurity and infant care and considers the differences in beliefs and in needs of parents and staff. Anne McFadyen argues that to support the key mother-child relationship, these differences must be acknowledged, as they are at the heart of the confrontation between two crucial systems which have the power to influence the baby's survival and the rest of his or her life.
