New to this edition: • Chapter 2 Theories of development includes extended information on emotion and learning, and a case study on giftedness


• Two new chapters on teaching and learning have been included in the second edition • Certain chapters include new boxed features on developmental psychopathology, highlighting disorders that occur during certain developmental stages.


“[The opening case studies] attract interest and are good for showing how theoretical concepts can be practically applied. [Although the book covers standard content for this audience], the difference is the contextualisation of developmental theory within a socio-cultural approach by providing South African examples. ”


Assoc Prof K Cockroft, University of Witwatersrand: Psychology

Early Childhood Care and Education (0–4): A Transdisciplinary Approach takes a holistic approach to Early Childhood Development (ECD) by integrating knowledge from various disciplines, such as education, social sciences, health sciences and the creative arts. As an undergraduate text for the training of educators and practitioners in Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE), it helps students see how these various areas are critical to understanding the development of a child. The book uses the biopsychosocial approach, which acknowledges that development during early childhood is influenced by an interaction of biological, psychological and social functioning.


Early Childhood Care and Education (0–4) can be used as a practical workbook by all involved in ECD (students, practitioners, trainers and government) as part of short learning programmes and across degree programmes, including the new bachelor of education in ECD and the diploma in ECD. The aim of the book is to serve and empower within a South African and African context.
