About the Book

This book is for students, teachers, healthcare workers that come into contact with children on a daily basis, social workers, parents, and individuals who want to know more about children developmental processes and how biological, physical, socio-economic, emotional, genetics, environmental, cultural, traditional, and ill health affect the smooth growth and development of children in different geographical areas and backgrounds. The Author elaborated on relevant theories of child development by some renowned pioneers in the game and touched on how family impact on children in the journey of growth and subsequent development. There is some relative reiteration on effects of abuse and neglect as a worrying concern of child development. The National Service Framework has been explained to highlight the support the Government renders to its citizens in order to give them maximum and effectual support, protection and treatment of children in hospitals. It goes on to explain about the policies, guidelines, procedures and measures that has been put in place to build up that fence of protection for the growing infants. This is in effect brings us to issues of child poverty that cripples and impedes growth and development of children. The Author also blended the Role of Fathers in the quest to pinpoint some of the family dynamics in modern societies. Fathers play vital and major role in bringing up children and therefore in this book, the author highlights the importance of Daddy's role in the developmental milestones of infants through adolescent to Adulthood. The Author also linked some of the difficulties and problems associated with growth and development to Post Natal Depression. This is because a healthy mother with no illness and stress has the ability and capabilities to nurture a child and help them grow through all the developmental milestones with probably less family dynamics and issues. That is why the Author addressed Post Natal Depression with some information for mothers in the global community, teachers, students, carers, social workers and all individuasl to have some insight into Post Natal Depression and how it affects child development. The Author begins with the Embryonic stage to 5years. This is when the zygote forms after conception and life begins almost immediately. The unborn Foetus develop through the trimester stages of pregnancy and is ready to be born into this world of uncertainties and unpredictability. Categories of development takes us through socio-emotional development, through language development with cognitive development as a central tool for growth and understanding of the world. Taking care of infants have been explained from feeding, through rest and sleep, bathing, suitable clothing and immunization. Behavioural issues has also been highlighted to balance the growth and developmental aspect. Psychoanalytic Theories by Sigmund Freud and Erik Erikson, Cognitive Theory by Jean Piaget, Behavioural Theory by B.F. Skinner, Social theory by John Bowlby, Albert Bandura and Lev Vygotsky. Stages of Cognitive development has been explained taken into account, Sensorimotor stage and Object Permanence. Personality has been explained in details as the above. What Personality is all about, components of Personality and some fundamental characteristics namely, consistency, Psychological and physiological. Psychosocial development by Erik Erikson and Sigmund Freud has been expanded bringing into play its stages like Trust and Mistrust. Causes of Psychosocial problems like poverty as mentioned before has been broken down for individuals to understand some of the core related issues like cultural values and societal roles. The Author made sure that most areas are covered for the purposes of assignment writing and knowledge based information to enrich the modern generation with some practical determinants of child development. It enlightens individuals in our Global community to understand child developmen
