Each section of the book:
- Outlines key aspects of a construct in relation to play
- Includes a wide range of references
- Summarizes research from an international perspective
- Offers insights from other well known figures with expertise in play
This essential reference book is vital reading for all those working and playing with young children and students on early childhood courses.
“Janet writes in a brilliantly authoritative style as she draws in research and researchers who surround quite contentious and complex issues. This is a scholarly text and is to be trusted.”
Dr Kathy Goouch, Reader in Education, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK
“In this fascinating and engaging text, Janet Moyles does not attempt to define play...This text will be invaluable to early childhood students and practitioners and to all those interested in extending their thinking about play.”
Professor Trisha Maynard, Director, Research Centre for Children, Families and Communities, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK
“This book certainly works a useful dictionary to remind us of what (for example) ‘epistemic play’ means, but I would advise readers to approach it more playfully... The imaginative use of photographs to illustrate entries, combined with illustrative examples, helps to make distinctions between the different types/aspects of play, and unobtrusive referencing is available for those who have been inspired to pursue particular interests further.”
Dr Jan Georgeson, Research Fellow in Early Education Development, Plymouth University, UK
“Janet’s brilliant idea - coupled with her characteristic meticulous application - has provided early childhood education and care with a rich treasure trove: a book to use for reference, as a starting point for reflection, a spark for debate and, importantly, a reiteration of the central role of play in the lives of children.”
Tricia David, Emeritus Professor, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK
