Understanding Child Development

This book is very informational for those who want to study child development. It has excellent information.

just as expected

I ordered the 2 day shipping, the book arrived in a new condition, as expected and on time.

A must read and have reference!

Hi! I live in Japan and am a children's language school owner. This book is a must read and important reference to anyone serious and committed to teaching children, particularly children as a life's work. I'm still working through the book (even on the train!) and I am now have a great new reference written from an expert in the field. It's like having a licensed co-worker along side with me! Thank you Dr. Charlesworth for your jewels of information, particularly over here in Japan! Tim Dickens Owner of Tim's Kids

Excellent Child Development Text

Charlesworth, the jack-of-all-trades early childhood writer, gives her version of a child development text, and resultingly produces a gold star effort namely because of her super-extreme focus on details. She begins with a "how-to" perspective on understanding development then proceeds from prenatal development to the culminating whole child. Lots of pictures, lots of charts, lots of side articles...and PLENTY of research citations for further study and scrutiny. Get it.
