Overview: 'There is much to admire in John Sommerville's synoptic survey, not least the energy with which he sweeps in 250 pages from Classical Antiquity to the present, synthesizing modern research and taking in such topics as education, the family, infant mortality, and child psychology...it is an enterprising and stimulating volume.' -- Medical History, April 1983 'With a touch of dry wit and an aversion to sentimentality, his attractive writing style draws the reader into his subject. Viewing history through the lens of the changing place of children in society can yield fresh and startling perspectives and interpretations for our own times. A stimulating book.' -- Child Welfare, Vol 62 No 4, July/August 1983'Th
