Abstract:
"From Birth to Sixteen Years outlines childrens physical, social, emotional and cognitive development from infancy through to adolescence. Providing information about normal development, the book also highlights deviations so that a range of health, social care and education professionals can quickly and easily identify where children are experiencing problems and whether or not these are issues that can be resolved without intervention or should be referred onwards.Quick and easy to access, this text is clear and concise, with illustrations, brief research summaries and case studies making links to professional practice throughout. Designed to fit with the requirements of the Common Assessment Framework, it presents developmental norms for the years from birth to sixteen under each of the following themes: Health and physical development, Emotional well-being and resilience, Relationships in the family, Relationships in day care, at school and with the peer group, Learning in a social context, Language and communication, Childrens rights and responsibilities, Children and the media. The text appreciates the diversity of ways in which children develop in different social contexts, taking into account gender, ethnicity, social background and disability, and values childrens resilience in conditions of adversity. It is ideal for students studying child development on a range of courses including nursing, play work, youth work, play therapy, early years education, teaching, social work and occupational therapy as well as practitioners in these areas"--Provided by publisher.
