Description for The Cambridge Handbook of Environment in Human Development Paperback. .
Families, communities and societies influence children's learning and development in many ways. This is the first handbook devoted to the understanding of the nature of environments in child development.

Understanding these embedded environments and the ways in which they interact is necessary to understand development.
