關於本電子書
The book progresses logically through three key areas: the developmental significance of touch in infant-caregiver relationships, its role in adult relationships and social bonding, and its therapeutic applications in clinical settings. Notable research findings include studies of touch-deprived orphans and measurements of cortisol levels in response to supportive touch, highlighting the biological importance of physical contact. The work particularly emphasizes how modern society's increasing digitalization has created a ""touch deficit"" with measurable psychological consequences.
Written in an accessible yet academically rigorous style, the book bridges multiple disciplines while offering practical guidelines for incorporating appropriate touch in various contexts. It addresses contemporary challenges in maintaining healthy touch boundaries and adapting touch-based therapies across different populations and cultural norms. What sets this work apart is its comprehensive integration of scientific research with practical applications, making it valuable for both professionals in mental health and education as well as individuals seeking to understand the science behind human connection.
