The Psychology of Babies by Lynne Murray
An instructive and accessible account of the psychological development of children aged 0-2 years and how it can be supported by social relationships. The first two years are critical in a child's development, influencing what happens in later childhood and even adulthood. Yet how best to support that early development is not always easy to grasp. Now help is at hand with this expert guide on the care of children through these essential years. Based on the latest research, with its wealth of picture sequences and clear explanations, this book shows how the development of young children's social understanding, attachments, self-control and intelligence can be supported through their relationships.
Professor Murray is all about the evidence when it comes to young children, which is what makes her latest book, The Psychology of Babies, such a joyIndependent a fascinating frame-by-frame insight into infant minds... hugely seductive -- Linda Geddes New Scientist Lynne Murray, professor of developmental psychology at the University of Reading, has been studying babies for more than three decades. She perhaps knows more about how they see the world than any adult in Britain today. -- John McDermott FT Weekend
