Understanding Child Development Linking Theory and Practice (A Hodder Arnold Publication)

"As the title suggests, this does link theory to practice and when studying for a degree thats what I need. Most, if not all, child theorists are mentioned in this book, (and have an Index of their own) so great to get differing views when looking for quotes. This book makes complicated subjects like development and psychology understandable by not bombarding you with 'heavy reading.' Great examples of practice, great links to theorists and great explainations. I refer to this book time and again when writing my assignments as I find what I'm looking for (or at least a start) easily.
Studying? Buy it for your bookshelf as you'll use it often, it is not a 'dust gatherer.' And that's what us students want as we can't afford to waste money."
