Reviews

This is a very important book for students of early childhood education: it offers a holistic and comprehensive overview of infant care in the past and demands the reader to reflect on their own practice as they read. It is both academically rigorous and heartwarming - a winning combination! * Abigail Gosling, Course Coordinator for BA (Hons) Early Childhood Education and Senior Lecturer Education Studies (Early Years), University of Bedfordshire, UK * This book presents a historical context for contemporary studies and views about infant care and family life. Authentic narratives emphasize women's roles and experiences of pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood over time. The author's deep passion for the book's focus is evident throughout, as is the depth of her knowledge of European/Western sources. * Dana Gross, Professor of Psychology, St Olaf College, USA *
