This collection makes some scientific works by Erich Blechschmidt accessible again to the interested contemporary readership. The book contributes to the growing interest of holistic and manual therapists in embryology. Cranial osteopathy, craniosacral therapy, prenatal therapy, manual work with newborns and toddlers, work with patients experiencing shock and trauma, and osteopathic biodynamics – all these fields of work (to name just a few) are developing dynamically and drawing new questions from an increasingly differentiated practice. Erich Blechschmidt's consistently morphological perspective can not only provide inspiring support for these therapeutic fields but can also offer assistance in finding new answers. The focus of this book is on the presentation.
