Originally published in 1993, this classic piece of literature on adoption has revolutionised the way people think about adopted children. Nancy Verrier examines the life-long consequences of the primal wound'' - the wound that is caused when a child is separated from its mother - for adopted people.

Her argument is supported by thorough research in pre- and perinatal psychology, attachment, bonding and the effects of loss.''
