This book was very influential on me, as regards behavior, even though it is for parents, not teachers.  Reading this changed my perspective on many kids I know, and helped me change how I dealt with them, and how I saw them.  Calls for occasional rereading, so that the principles become set.  This book doesn't help with every single child, this book is for difficult, children; emotionally abnormal children.  But I was surprised to find that a boy I know who I had thought of as ADHD shows many characteristics of the Attachment disorder that this book discusses.  I have yet to find a book as straightforward, frank and easy-to-comprehend for children with normal psychology.
