Dann and ODell have achieved an impressive feat, presenting both the methodology and rationale for doing feminist developmental psychology in a truly accessible and engaging way. This is a vital resource which needs to be read by all undergraduates and students interested in child and individual development.Erica Burman, author of Deconstructing Developmental Psychology and Professor of Education, The University of Manchester, UKI have waited years for a book like this! There is nothing else out there that offers a critical approach to development at a level accessible to undergraduates. I highly recommend this text for use with students studying developmental psychology, human development, and related areas.Sonja J. Ellis, Associate Professor in Human Development, The University of Waikato, New ZealandA refreshing and welcome addition to the field of developmental psychology.Charlotte Brownlow, Dean of the Graduate Research School, University of Southern Queensland, AustraliaThe Feminist Companion series includes titles that act as your friends and mentors in book form, supporting you in your studies, especially when things get tough.This companion equips you to question and re-evaluate what you think you know about attachment, developmental disability, neurodiversity, and a range of other formative childhood and individual development experiences, all through a feminist lens. In doing so, it makes the case for an intersectional approach to developmental psychology that considers how the different aspects of who we are influence our development.Key features include:Five Reasons Why You Need a Feminist Companion a helpful guide to what readers can expect to gain from this bookActivity boxes, suggesting ways you can put the theory you are learning into practiceSee and Hear for Yourself boxes, signposting readers to where they can find real-world examples of the concepts coveredSummary sections that articulate the main points of each chapter and provide a useful revision aidA glossary of key termsThe book maps to the British Psychological Society (BPS) curriculum on developmental psychology as well as the Quality Assessment Agencys (QAA) Subject Benchmark Statement for Psychology.Charlotte Dann is Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Northampton, UK.
