Through a careful examination of current research work including
three on-going longitudinal studies, Dunn explores children's
relationships with parents, siblings, friends, and the connections
between these relationships. "This book presents a meticulous and
perceptive account of the nature of young children's relationships
with others. Judy Dunn confronts this task in its full complexity
by skillfully blending objective, systematic research findings with
observational reports that are both sensitive and insightful. In so
doing, she has written an immensely readable, coherent
state-of-the-art account of children's relationships,
simultaneously forging an argument that challenges the paradigm
with which much current research takes place." --Jennifer Castle,
review in Personality & Individual Differences "Another gem
from Judy Dunn! . . . This very readable and interesting book asks
some searching questions about how relationships change with age,
how one sort of relationship influences others, and how thought
processes shape or control our interactions with other people. The
answers are based on a judicious interweaving of qualitative
observation and hard-headed quantitative analyses. The result is a
challenging (and sometimes provocative) account of what we know
today, together with a look forward to likely developments in the
years to come." --Michael Rutter, Department of Child and
Adolescent Psychiatry, The Bethlem Royal Hospital and Maudsley
Hospital, London "This book presents a meticulous and perceptive
account of the nature of young children's relationships with
others. . . . Judy Dunn skilfully blends objective, systematic
research findings with observational reports that are both
sensitive and insightful. In so doing, she has written an immensely
readable, coherent state-of-the-art account of children's
relationships, simultaneously forging an argument that challenges
the paradigm within which much current research takes place. . . .
The breadth and scope of this book give it obvious appeal to all
those interested in social and developmental psychology. . . . The
style and presentation of the book will probably ensure it a
readership beyond its intended audience: As usual, Judy Dunn
presents complex material in a deceptively simple, uncluttered,
commonsensical manner." --Behaviour Research & Therapy
