'It will be an excellent addition to your listThis is the most important research project we have ever had in the early years sector in the UK.' - Dame Gillian Pugh, Institute of Education, London

'I would expect this to be essential reading and therefore a main text for multidisciplinary programmes (eg Early Childhood Studies and Foundation Degrees in Early Years) which include both undergraduate and postgraduate courses, as well as initial and continuing professional qualifications (health, teaching, social work, family law etc). It will also be essential for research at postgraduate level in this field.' - Angela Nurse, Canterbury Christchurch

'This is likely to be a highly successful book, especially if the authors take the opportunity for critical and reflective engagement with the project.' - Liz Wood, University of Exeter
