Childhood is a uniquely human life-stage, and is both a biological
phenomenon and a social construct. Research on children is
currently of wide-ranging interest. This groundbreaking book
presents reviews of childhood from four major areas of
interest--human evolution, sociology/social anthropology,
biomedical anthropology and developmental psychology--to form a
biosocial, cross-cultural understanding of childhood. The book
places a strong emphasis on how childhood varies from culture to
culture, offering examples from developed and developing countries,
as well as from other animal species. It will be of interest to
students and scholars within the fields of human biology,
anthropology, sociology, health studies, and developmental
psychology.
