<br/><br/> "In this text, Alan Prout discusses the place of children and childhood in contemporary society. He critically examines 'the new social studies of childhood', reconsidering some of their key assumptions and positions, and arguing that childhood is heterogeneous and complex. The study of childhood requires a broad set of intellectual resources and an interdisciplinary approach." "This book is essential reading for students and academics in the field of childhood studies, sociology and education."--BOOK JACKET.
