Recenzii
'This informative and wide-ranging book argues persuasively for the value of multiple perspectives, both international and disciplinary, in the study and practice of early childhood education, because they feed our imaginations and provoke us to think. And while illustrating the many differences that exist between countries, it highlights the shared issues confronting us, wherever we live.'
I would recommend International Perspectives in the Early Years to those studying and working in this area. The writers’ passion for the welfare of children is obvious and the book goes beyond that which would be provided by an introductory textbook. The book is thought provoking and would be particularly useful to those looking for research ideas of their own.
Stemming from original research in the field, this book features a range of expert contributors who, between them, explore the key issues, themes and debates, surrounding international perspectives on early childhood education and care. From Norway to Mexico, and from France to Hungary, and via many other countries, a wide variety of topics are covered, demonstrating the shared issues confronting us, despite the many differences.
The book is enjoyable to read and provides interesting insights into early childhood. Each chapter concludes with a summary of the chapter and prompts to enable the reader to reflect on the topic in their own contexts. I also liked each chapter having a list of recommended readings, categorised to suit students across all levels of study. The language used through the book was simple but profound and would appeal to students and early childhood practitioners. The diversity of examples and experiences that the book offers to the reader is enriching and provides opportunities for further reflection and research.
