Examine the evolution of developmentally appropriate practice with this biographical history of early childhood education. This book explores the theory's progression from its beginnings in writings of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century philosophers, its experimental implementation by eighteenth- and nineteenth-century practitioner, to its scientific grounding in contemporary theory and research. Included are biographical sketches and perspectives of eleven philosophical, pedagogical, and theoretical figures - the giants - whose contributions mark turning points in early childhood education.
