Shute, Rosalyn H.2015
Book
'Child Development' provides an engaging and perceptive overview of both well-established and recent theories in child and adolescent psychology. This summary of traditional scientific perspectives alongside critical post-modern thinking will provide readers with a sense of the historical development of different schools of thought. The authors also place theories of child development in philosophical and cultural contexts, explore links between them, and consider the implications of theory for practice in the light of the latest thinking and developments in implementation and translational science.
