Pediatric neuroscience. Rage of innocents

Description

Recent laboratory research indicates that emotional neglect of children during their first few years of life can have long-term biochemical consequences. In this outstanding documentary, anthropologists from Cornell and Emory Universities and other experts share their findings on the subtle biochemical link between parental attentiveness and the proper development of a child's brain regions that control responses to stress. The program also investigates approaches to care-giving from the perspective of social science and evolutionary biology.
