Nurturing Natures

Attachment and Children's Emotional, Sociocultural and Brain Development

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The new edition of this bestselling book examines the essential research about children's emotional development, with an expert balance of theory and clinical implications. Integrating the latest research from attachment theory, neuroscience, evolutionary theory and psychology, and with a new chapter on moral development, Music explores how we develop capacities for language, play or memory. Issues of nature and nurture are addressed and the effects of different kinds of early experiences are unpicked. It is invaluable for students in developmental psychology as well as counsellors, clinicians and psychotherapists in mental health, nursing, education and social work.
