Attending to the topic of transitions through this relational approach offers a powerful lens that makes visible taken for granted experiences and enables ways to rethink the processes, practices, and structures we have built. This book reminds us all that we can change what we have built and that, with change, we are likely to see improvements in the experience of transitions. * Jennifer A. Vadeboncoeur, Professor of Human Development, Learning, and Culture, The University of British Columbia, Canada * Essential reading for professionals working with children in times of transitions. Traditional psychological approaches to transitions have largely tended to focus interventions at changing individuals, without developing an understanding of a childs social situation of development. This book, written by experts in the field, addresses this gap in the literature by situating transitions socio-culturally and historically. * Joanne Hardman, Associate Professor in Education, University of Cape Town, South Africa *
