Love Builds Brains, lays out the early years’ journey of attachment, self-regulation, connection, resilience and well-being, with scientific explanations that are measured out in understandable doses. We hear the author’s voice throughout the chapters as she tells clinical and personal stories to amplify her points and perspective. She speaks from a population perspective, and then speaks to the individual level of our involvement with children suggesting prevention and management strategies. In the book, there’s a strong and appropriate emphasis on early years’ development, but there’s also attention to the adolescent brain. This book is full of scientifically-based wisdom in a conversational style.
Dr. Clinton works very hard to advocate for children and youth and to translate the sciences that have uncovered more about the workings of the brain and mind. She sees her role as a Knowledge Translator, bringing insights to groups of people by making research and knowledge accessible.
