This new book draws together the major developments in the field.

'This new book is a spring of inspiration.Theorizing Childhoodaddresses in a superb way the main, if not all, relevant approaches within the 'new sociology of childhood'. It demonstrates brilliantly the salience of this new field both for what it can learn from the general body of knowledge and for what it can itself contribute to modern social science...no scholar in this or neighbouring fields can afford not to read and digest it.'Jens Qvortrup, South Jutland University Centre
'The framework developed here is potentially an extremely powerful one, with enormous potential to stimulate and focus our thinking about childhood - and in particular our research'Social Work & Social Sciences Review
