Synopsis

Perspectives on Play exames current research and theoretical knowledge with regards to play as a medium of learning. It examines the theory of play, relating cutting-edge research to case studies of practice, taken from a broad range of multi-disciplinary perspectives.

 

Brock's approach offers a dynamic persepctive on the practice of play that will rival existing texts on the market.

 

"In my view, this text is already a market leader for the theme of ‘Play’.  It gives value for money as a comprehensive text."
