Children of Social Worlds Development in a Social Context

Researchers in child development often study children in isolation--apart from the environmental influences that shape, nurture, or harm them. In 'Children of Social Worlds', leading social scientists show how much is lost by this approach. Their underlying assumption is that children's psychological development can be understood only in the context of the social worlds in which they grow up and that the disciplinary boundaries of traditional psychology must be expanded.Richards, Martin is the author of 'Children of Social Worlds Development in a Social Context' with ISBN 9780674116221 and ISBN 0674116224.
