Características

The Secure Child: Timeless Lessons In Parenting and Childhood Educationwas designed to contribute meaning to the adage what was old is new again.Just as ideas in child psychology shifted in the 1960s from a focus on behaviorto cognitive stages, we are currently seeing a shift away from stages ofdevelopment toward an emphasis on the interplay between children and theworld around them. Specifically, the book offers practical insights into howchildren can be helped to cope with their changing worlds. These insightsemerged in the 1930s, a time of social and economic upheaval much like today.This collection of original papers by former students and colleagues of WilliamE. Blatz, the renowned psychologist and pediatrician known as the Dr. Spockof Canada, makes a vital contribution by bringing forward and examining hiswork in the context of contemporary ideas about human development,parenting, and education. The collection forms a prologue to an included guidewritten by Blatz and colleagues, The Expanding World of the Child. The previously unpublished workarticulates a comprehensive functional approach to parenting and childhood education. The unique format of thisbook will make it useful for courses in parenting, childhood education as well scholarship in child psychology,personality theory, and socialization.
