"Early Childhood Studies 2nd Ed" presents a clear and detailed account of infancy and early childhood. The first edition of this ground-breaking text supported the study of childhood from an holistic and multidisciplinary perspective; in the same vein, this new edition is now entirely revised and updated in line with current policy and legislation. The main focus lies in the promotion of children's development, health and well-being. Poverty and cultural issues are amongst the important themes highlighted throughout the book, plus there is new material on parenting, disability and first years at school. Key features include: key concepts thoroughly explained in a concise, easy to read format; written from a multidisciplinary approach with contributing authors from the disciplines of sociology, health, education, genetics, social policy, psychology and social work; edited by senior academics in Paediatric Nursing and Early Childhood Education; student-centred activities, references and further reading promote practical application of theory; greater emphasis on health promotion; reflects changes in legislation and current practice developments; and, additional material on parenting, disability and first years at school. "Early Childhood Studies" is an invaluable text for all students on courses with an early childhood element. In particular this includes Child Health Nursing, Community Specialist Nursing, Health and Social Care, Social Work and Early Childhood Studies Degrees or Degree Programmes.
