This comprehensive and accessible book introduces child development in the first three years of life. Organized chronologically, the book explores three developmental stages—newborn (birth-3 months), infant (4-17 months), and child (18-36 months) —covering physical, perceptual, cognitive, language, emotional, and social development at each stage. The book sets this fundamental information in theories of development, contexts of development, research methods in

development, and the implications for social policies, applications, and interventions.
Key issues such as the interplay between nature and nurture and interrelations among the several domains of development, are seamlessly integrated throughout. Emphasizing the early years as a unique and critical phase of life, the book features user-friendly elements like boxes that focus on How Do We Know This? and Applications. Presented in full colour, the book also defines key terms in a Glossary and presents suggested readings.

Authored by world-renowned experts in child development, this essential edition is ideal for undergraduate courses in psychology, education, child development, nursing, and social work. It also serves as a valuable resource for professionals in early childhood development and education.

"As a detailed exploration of early childhood development, 'A Chronological Approach to Early Childhood Development' offers invaluable insights into the intricate processes that shape human growth from conception through childhood. Its rigorous integration of current research with practical examples makes it an essential resource for students and practitioners alike in developmental psychology and related fields."

Tatiana M. Twiss, CHAD Senior Student, California State University, USA

"This is the book I wish Id had as a student! Now, as an academic, it is a valuable, concise guide with small nuggets of contemporary insights. Covering all the major conceptual ideas of early child development, this resource provides a neat and engaging outline of the rapid psychological changes humans undergo from the prenatal stage to three years of age. Importantly, the authors have skilfully cut through the research and distilled key highlights in an engaging narrative. This indispensable resource captures the dynamic and sequential nature of early child development, making it a pleasure to recommend to my students and to anyone passionate about understanding the journey of child development."

This book is a significant contribution to the field of early childhood development. The authors provide a comprehensive overview of developmental processes across key domains, combining robust empirical evidence with compelling theoretical insights. It is an essential resource for students and researchers in developmental psychology and cognitive science, as well as for practitioners working with infants and their caregivers. I found the chapters on communication and relationships particularly illuminating and plan to incorporate them into my own teaching. I highly recommend this book and anticipate that it will become a foundational text in the field.
