Some children seem different, detached, disinterested in the games of other children. They prefer their hobbies to friends of their own age and if forced into community activities, as they often are at school, can become aggressive and difficult. In Loners, Sula Wolff describes a childhood personality syndrome that has frequently been neglected. Often using children's own words, their lives and problems become real as she unwraps their stories from first referral to adulthood. Some have become talented and successful adults, whilst others are less fortunate in later years. Carefully documented and meticulously researched, this study makes compelling reading.
Sula Wolff is Honorary Fellow at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Edinburgh. She is the author of Children under Stress (1968; 2nd edn 1981) and Childhood and Human Nature: The Development of Personality (1989).
