The Attachment Bond: Affectional Ties across the Lifespan draws together and evaluates the vast body of research on the causes and consequences of attachment security in infants, growing children, and adults. Reviewing and synthesizing the results of five decades of attachment theory and research in the fields of developmental, clinical, and social and personality psychology, Virginia M. Shiller succinctly summarizes the most important findings regarding the significance of early as well as ongoing security in attachment relationships. Conclusions from studies conducted around the globe inform the reader of the impact of relational experiences in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood on the social, emotional, and physical well-being of individuals.

Embracing a storytelling approach, Shiller weaves together theory and examples in an easy to read, yet comprehensive volume.... Shiller provides an extensive summary of attachment research that has occurred over the past century, educating her readers through clearly written and comprehensive research reviews in conjunction with real-life vignettes.... Shiller has offered a comprehensive overview of attachment theory and has provided us, through storytelling, an understanding of how theory and life intertwine. If Bowlby were alive today, he would be proud of Shiller.
