Written by a team of leading academics and practitioners, this is a lively and engaging textbook and is illustrated throughout with student-friendly features such as `real-life′ case studies and guides for further reading. The chapters cover all key aspects of the curriculum, including: the sociology of childhood; child health; child development; and the realities of working with children. This thoroughly updated and revised new edition also includes completely new chapters on research with children and leadership in early year settings.
It is a core text for all those involved in the study of childhood, particularly undergraduates in the fields of child social care, social work, social policy and education. It is also an invaluable resource for practitioners and policy makers working with children.
