Description
Infancy is a unique period, in that at no other state is there greater growth and development. During this time, growth is occurring
at a physical level, but equally impressive are the socio-emotional and cognitive developments during this time. Genetics, the womb
environment, and the physical environment after birth all combine to impact the rate and manner of growth. Who we ultimately become
as individuals begins here.
Intended for university and public libraries, the Encyclopedia of Infant and Early Childhood Development
is the major reference work that provides a comprehensive entry point into all of the existing literature on child development from the
fields of psychology, genetics, neuroscience, and sociology. The scope of this work is to understand the developmental changes, when
they occur, why they occur, how they occur, and those factors that influence that development. Although some medical information is
included, the emphasis is on normal growth and is primarily from a psychological perspective.
Audience
University and public libraries (primary)
Research laboratories and hospitals (secondary) Although the information will be cutting edge
and comprehensive, it will be written in language appropriate for the lay reader, without scientific references in the body of the text.
