The two volumes of A Practical Guide to Child Development are useful for anyone following a child-care course in which a sound knowledge of child development is required. The six main section of this volume deal with: the care and preparation needed before, during and after pregnancy-the development of the fetus-and the physical, social, emotional and intellectual development of the child. Follow-up exercises and activities are found at the end of most chapters. Ten appendices provide a summary of services available, addresses of organizations referred to in the book, sources of more information, and suggestions for further reading.
