DESCRIPTION:The importance of high quality early childhood education is no
 w universally recognised\, and this quality crucially depends upon the pra
 ctitioners who work with our young children\, and their deep understanding
  of how children develop and learn. This book makes a vital contribution t
 o this understanding\, providing authoritative reviews of key areas of res
 earch in developmental psychology\, and demonstrating how these can inform
  practice in early years educational settings. \n\nDavid is Senior Lecture
 r in Developmental Psychology and Early Years Education in the Faculty of 
 Education\, University of Cambridge. His research interests are concerned 
 with children's early development and implications for early years and pri
 mary education. A particular focus has been the development of metacogniti
 on and self-regulation in young children\, and its implications for their 
 emotional well-being and development as learners.\n
