It is the first time that analysis of data from the hugely important Millennium Cohort Study, a longitudinal study following the progress of the children and their families, has been drawn together in a single volume. The unrivalled data is examined here to address important policy and scientific issues. The book is also the first in a series of publications that will report on the children's lives at different stages of their development. The fascinating range of findings presented here is strengthened by comparison with data on earlier generations. This has enabled the authors to assess the impact of a wide range of policies on the life courses of a new generation, including policies on child health, parenting, childcare and social exclusion. Babies of the new millennium (title tbc) is the product of an exciting collaboration from experts across a wide range of health and social science fields. The result is a unique and authoritative analysis of family life and early childhood in the UK that cuts across old disciplinary boundaries. It is essential reading for academics, students and researchers in the health and social sciences. It will also be a useful resource for policy makers and practitioners who are interested in childhood, child development, child poverty, child health, childcare and family policy. 410 0$aUK millennium cohort study series. 606 $aInfants$zGreat Britain 606 $aChild development$zGreat Britain 606 $aParents$zGreat Britain$vStatistics 606 $aInfants$zGreat Britain$vStatistics 615 0$aInfants 615 0$aChild development 615 0$aParents 615 0$aInfants 676 $a305.2320941/0905 702 $aDex$b Shirley 702 $aJoshi$b Heather 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784800003321 996 $aChildren of the 21st century$93779297 997 $aUNINA
