Synopsis

A decade ago "The Integration of a Child into a Social World", edited by Martin Richards, was first published. It has since become something of a manifesto for those who believe that psychological development can only be understood in the context of the social worlds in which children live and the social relationships they establish. This new volume reviews progress over the past ten years and looks forward to the future. It discusses the relations between children, their families and broader social institutions, as well as specific contemporary phenomena such as divorce and the threat of nuclear war. The development of children's language and thinking is examined within the context of the child's communication with others - a sustained attempt being made to avoid the individualistic approach so characteristic of research on child development. The authors are all leading researchers in their fields and are able to view the lives of children from the variety of perspectives crucial in an integrated study of this kind. This book will be of interest to students and researchers in social psychology, child development and sociology; psychiatrists, psychologists and all professionals working with children.
