From the Publisher

This popular text has a two-fold perspective that concentrates on both children's development and students' development as early education professionals. The authors examine children's development within an ecological context that includes the family, the school community, and society as a whole...exploring major development theories as they relate to all aspects of the young child's growth. In addition, they emphasize the 'development' of adult early childhood professionals and the impact of these adults on the children with whom they work. With this unique dual perspective, students receive more background on children's development than can be found in most curriculum and development texts, as well as more material on their chosen profession than is available from child psychology texts.
