Starting to work analytically as a pediatrician in 1937, Francoise Dolto (1908â €"1988) belongs to the second generation of French psychoanalysts, and like D. W. Winnicott, worked intensively in pediatric liaison. Her book The Unconscious Body Image was a vital contribution to our understanding of child development. The millions who listened to her weekly broadcast on national radio felt guided by her as parents, yet Dolto is curiously unknown in the English-speaking world.
