Here, heard often in their own voices, are America’s “children of crisis”: African American children caught in the throes of the South’s racial integration; The children of impoverished migrant workers in Appalachia; Children whose families were transformed by the migration from South to North, from rural to urban communities; Latino, Native American, and Eskimo children in the poorest communities of the American West; The children of America’s wealthiest families confronting the burden of their own privilege.
This volume restores to print a masterwork of psychological and sociological inquiry — a book that, in its focus on how children learn and develop in the face of rapid change and social upheaval, speaks directly and pointedly to our own times.
