Stearns facilitates a cross-cultural and transnational understanding of attitudes toward the role of children in society, and how \"models\" of childhood have developed throughout history. He addresses the tension between regional and social\/gender differences, on the one hand, and factors that encouraged greater convergence, including the experience of globalization. The book also deals with regional patterns as determined by different religious and cultural systems and family structures. It encourages readers to consider the complexity in evaluating childhood patterns in the past, in light of more modern conditions and expectations, and at the same time to realize some of the problems contemporary children encounter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis updated and expanded fourth edition includes: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eBroadened discussions of childhood in Asia, Africa, and Latin America\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdditional text on children's play and the impact of immigration\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eMore voices from children throughout\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eUpdated bibliographies and suggested readings\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcisely presented but broad in scope, this book will be of interest to students of world history and those involved in interdisciplinary approaches to childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeter N.
