This accessibly written book explores how increasing knowledge of neuroscience and advances in methods of investigation are changing our understanding of child development. Examining key aspects of development such as emotion, memory, learning, perception, and language, as well as brain structure and neurodevelopmental disorders, Child Development and the Brain offers insight into the connections between brain development and how children think and feel. Packed with illustrations, case studies, reflection points, suggestions for further reading, and complete with a full glossary of technical terms, this book links science and practice and provides social science students and childcare workers with a valuable introduction to the science behind the child brain.

"Developmental neuroscience is an exciting area of research that is increasing in importance. This text is a good, accessible, introduction to this field including what neuroscience can add to our understanding of key development throughout childhood." Dawn Watling, Royal Holloway, University of London "The editors stress some deficits in information and common misconceptions about the brain...helpful aspects of the volume include the use of boldface for terminology, a good glossary, and section summaries." Choice "A highly accessible introduction to developmental neuroscience. Abbott and Burkitt explain complex issues with clarity and elegance, and their engaging text is a pleasure to read. An exemplary book." Martyn Barrett, University of Surrey
