Explores the areas of convergence and divergence, opposition, and integration between attachment and sexuality. This book suggests that there is a bi-directional web of influences that weaves the attachment and sexual systems together in increasingly complex ways from infancy to adulthood.

Examines theoretical aspects of attachment research and psychoanalysis. Topics covered include similarities and differences between psychoanalytic and attachment theories, the development of caregiving, and the two-person unconscious.
