"Drawing on his unique background to link moral considerations to psychological truths, Dr. Spock traces from childhood the development of habits and attitudes that sour every aspect of our daily lives - from the destructive rivalry between men and women that impairs the dignity and pleasures of sexuality to the loss of idealism that results in racial strife and war."
