    4 out of 5 stars A useful study resource on theorists and their influence   October 25, 2008
     3 out of 3 found this review helpful

    A clear and well set out book detailing approximately 20 theorists who have had influences in the way we approach early years education.
    I would normally dip in and out of text books but this one I was happy to read as it's set out in such a undemanding and informative way.

    The book is set out with headings about each theorist's;
    - Life and upbringing
    - Books and writing
    - Their theory
    - How those theories have been put into practise and their influence

    The author also critiques the theories and provides web sites and books to find out more about each one.

    Whilst it's definitely a useful book and one I've found interesting, I had hoped to find some information on Maslow, Rogers or Kelly so was slightly disappointed they weren't mentioned.



    5 out of 5 stars Essential at any level   February 11, 2008
     8 out of 8 found this review helpful

    Great book, great for all levels - good mix of theorists, excellent links to more information. Good links to those who oppose the theorists cited and why - would recommend as a good basic book for any level of learning
