Why the United States has failed to establish a comprehensive
high-quality child care program is the question at the center of
this book. Edward Zigler has been intimately involved in this issue
since the 1970s, and here he presents a firsthand history of the
policy making and politics surrounding this important debate.
Good-quality child care supports cognitive, social, and emotional
development, school readiness, and academic achievement. This book
examines the history of child care policy since 1969, including the
inside story of America's one great attempt to create a
comprehensive system of child care, its failure, and the lack of
subsequent progress. Identifying specific issues that persist
today, Zigler and his coauthors conclude with an agenda designed to
lead us successfully toward quality care for America's children.
