Description
Nurturing Natures: Attachment and Children's Emotional, Sociocultural and Brain Development
This new edition of Nurturing Natures provides a comprehensive synthesis of the latest scientific knowledge about children's emotional development. Drawing on a wide range of research from attachment theory, neuroscience, developmental psychology, and cross-cultural studies, the book offers a balanced and accessible exploration of the complex relationships between nature and nurture.
From the womb to adolescence, the book examines key developmental stages, including language, play, memory, and moral capacities, and considers the impact of early experiences on the developing child. New to this edition are discussions on transgender issues, same-sex parenting, and the experiences of black and minority ethnic groups, as well as the effects of climate change anxiety on mental health. With key points, questions for consideration, further reading, and online video chapter introductions, this book is a valuable resource for childcare students, teachers, social workers, and those working in child counselling, psychiatry, and mental health.
