"Attachment in Social Networks: Contributions to the Bowlby-Ainsworth Attachment Theory" is a significant work in the Advances in Psychology series. Edited by Louis W.C. Tavecchio and Marinus H. Van Ijzendoorn, this volume provides an exploration of the Bowlby-Ainsworth attachment theory, with a focus on its application in understanding social networks. The book highlights how attachment theory, originally developed to explain the bonds between infants and caregivers, can also be extended to social relationships and networks in adulthood. The contributors examine how attachment styles influence social behavior, interpersonal relationships, and social support systems. This volume is particularly useful for psychologists, social scientists, and researchers interested in the development of attachment theory and its implications for social and emotional well-being across the lifespan.
