This book provides a straightforward introduction to child development. It also covers the methods and problems of research into children, and the application of new findings in practical life. Thus it explores the ideas of such giants as Freud, Bowlby and Piaget, and the application of those ideas to children in the home, to adoption, fostering and childminding, to playgroups and nurseries, to learning and testing in school, and to some methods of therapy.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very Interesting yet Informative and easy to Understand,
By
This review is from: Child Development: A First Course (Paperback)
I am studying a Psychology course in preparation for a Psychology Degree in September 2009. My particular interest is the way in which children develop and their reasons for behaving in the way they do. This book is very informative and details all the relevant theorists such as Piaget and Mary Ainsworth and their studies which made a huge contribution to child development. This book contains illustrations and diagrams which assist in demonstrating the different experiments and case studies performed, and its language is not too technical yet it uses the correct terminology and explains it very well.
I would recommend this book to anybody who has an interest in child development, regardless of whether they are studying psychology as an academic subject, just for personal interest, or purely just because they have an interest in the way that children will grow up and how they learn new skills. A fantastic buy and worth its weight in gold!
