About this listen

A collection of lectures from the founder of attachment theory

In A Secure Base, world-famous psychiatrist John Bowlby investigates the role of early intimate relationships in child development. Pulling from evolutionary biology and psychoanalysis, Bowlby posits that a secure base in childhood provides the foundation for an emotionally available adult. He investigates the role of this secure foundation for fostering emotional resilience, self-esteem, empathy, and ability to trust, and how these characteristics impact therapeutic and relationship outcomes in adults.

This audiobook is expertly read by Marguerite Gavin, with audio production by Mike Thal. It was published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
