The book I recommend to clients the most, by far, is this one by Margot Sutherland. In fact, it's so good that I recommend it whether or not they're parents!

You see, I've never found a better introductory book for explaining the process of how our nervous system learns to manage stress and emotion.

You'll discover for example that soothing our children through life's ups and downs, literally develops the self-sooting capacity of their nervous system. As a result, they're enabled to do this for themselves later, as adults.

But why do I recommend it to therapy clients who are not parents?

Well, you see, it's all about brain plasticity. We can - under the right conditions - rewire the brain in much the same way.

It shouldn't hurt your pocket book too much. It's currently selling for as little as $10. You might also find it at the library...where I first came upon it.
