Recenzii

This is a very important book for students of early childhood education: it offers a holistic and comprehensive overview of infant care in the past and demands the reader to reflect on their own practice as they read. It is both academically rigorous and heartwarming - a winning combination!
This book presents a historical context for contemporary studies and views about infant care and family life. Authentic narratives emphasize women's roles and experiences of pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood over time. The author's deep passion for the book's focus is evident throughout, as is the depth of her knowledge of European/Western sources.
Dr. Norman's book centres the relationship among infant(s), parents, and professional(s) within a richly woven tapestry of historical and contemporary ideas. Her thoughtful use of questions, narratives, and cases makes the text accessible, particularly to those who are new to considerations of infanthood within the landscape of early childhood education.
This rich text draws together research, historical account and individual stories to powerfully illuminate the complex landscape of infant care and development. It effectively provokes the reader to consider connections between historical and contemporary practices and experiences. It is an invaluable resource for all interested in infant care and development.
