Young Children's Personal, Social and Emotional Development

By Marion Dowling (Sage, £22.99)

With its fourth edition coming out this August, this guide to self-esteem and development in young children includes research on brain development and considers children from diverse backgrounds, as well as current policies and frameworks, up-to-date research references and real-life case studies.

The final chapter has been revised to cover different methods of supporting children, and there is also coverage of troubled families and 'vulnerable children', with sections on identifying risk, talking to families and safeguarding and protection.
