The debate has intensified as discoveries about our development-in the womb and in the first months and years-have reached the popular media. How can we use our burgeoning knowledge to assure the well-being of all young children, for their own sake as well as for the sake of our nation? Drawing from new findings, this book presents important conclusions about nature-versus-nurture, the impact of being born into a working family, the effect of politics on programs for children, the costs and benefits of intervention, and other issues. The committee issues a series of challenges to decision makers regarding the quality of child care, issues of racial and ethnic diversity, the integration of children's cognitive and emotional development, and more. Authoritative yet accessible, From Neurons to Neighborhoods presents the evidence about "brain wiring" and how kids learn to speak, think, and regulate their behavior. It examines the effect of the climate-family, child care, community-within which the child grows. 606 $aChild development$zUnited States 606 $aPreschool children$zUnited States 606 $aPreschool children$xServices for$zUnited States 606 $aNature and nurture$zUnited States 606 $aEarly childhood education$zUnited States 606 $aChild Development 606 $aChild, Preschool$xeducation 606 $aCommunity Networks 607 $aUnited States 615 0$aChild development 615 0$aPreschool children 615 0$aPreschool children$xServices for 615 0$aNature and nurture 615 0$aEarly childhood education 615 2$aChild Development. 615 2$aChild, Preschool$xeducation. 615 2$aCommunity Networks. 676 $a305.231 701 $aShonkoff$b Jack P$0316906 701 $aPhillips$b Deborah$0457218 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Integrating the Science of Early Childhood Development. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961673403321 996 $aFrom neurons to neighborhoods$94352429 997 $aUNINA
