{"product_id":"from-neurons-to-neighborhoods-the-science-of-early-childhood-development","title":"From Neurons to Neighborhoods : The Science of Early Childhood Development","description":"How we raise young children is one of today's most highly personalized and sharply politicized issues, in part because each of us can claim some level of \"expertise.\" The debate has intensified as discoveries about our development—in the womb and in the first months and years—have reached the popular media.\nHow can we use our burgeoning knowledge to assure the well-being of all young children, for their own sake as well as for the sake of our nation? Drawing from new findings, this book presents important conclusions about nature-versus-nurture, the impact of being born into a working family, the effect of politics on programs for children, the costs and benefits of intervention, and other issues.\nThe committee issues a series of challenges to decision makers regarding the quality of child care, issues of racial and ethnic diversity, the integration of children's cognitive and emotional development, and more.\nAuthoritative yet accessible, From Neurons to Neighborhoods presents the evidence about \"brain wiring\" and how kids learn to speak, think, and regulate their behavior. It examines the effect of the climate—family, child care, community—within which the child grows.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0309069882\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0309069882.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Committee on Integrating the Science of Early Childhood Development|Board on Children, Youth, and Families|Council, National Research|Development, Committee on Integrating the Science of Early Childhood\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
