Book Synopsis Children and Their Environments by : Christopher Spencer
Book excerpt: This fascinating book examines theories of children's perceptions of space and place and explores how these theories are applied to the world of children. The focus is on children in large real world spaces; places that children live in, explore and learn from. An international team of authors compare the experiences of children from different cultures and backgrounds. This book will appeal t o environmental and developmental psychologists and geographers, and also to planners by linking research on children's understandings and on their daily lives to recommendations for practice.
