This groundbreaking work by Fritz Redl and David Wineman, published in 1965, delves into the complex psyche of children exhibiting antisocial behavior. Drawing from their extensive experience in residential treatment centers, the authors offer a compassionate yet unflinching analysis of the underlying causes and manifestations of such conduct. At a time when the field of child psychology was still in its infancy, “Children Who Hate” challenged prevailing notions and paved the way for a more nuanced understanding of childhood trauma and its impact on behavior. Redl and Wineman’s insights into the interplay between a child’s internal struggles and their response to the adult world remain highly relevant today, making this volume a seminal work for educators, psychologists, and anyone seeking to better comprehend the intricate dynamics of childhood development.
