The book introduces a groundbreaking theory of female development through the concept of an "internal triangle," which consists of mother and father introjects interacting with the self. This intrapsychic structure aids girls in separating from and asserting control over early influences, paralleling the role of the penis in male development. Holmes explores the integration and realignment of this triangle at key life stages, including adolescence, pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, and old age, offering fresh insights into the complexities of female psychological growth.
