These challenges are both different and similar to ours. A major difference is that India has to provide for a staggering 161 million children aged under six. But what we share is a concern for the empowerment of women, the need to turn our attention to the under-threes, the question of how to determine quality, the 'too formal too early' curriculum, and the need for early years people to be more vociferous in articualting what we know about what young children need' - Nursery World Combining macro and micro perspectives, this book provides a broad overview of the status of early childhood care and education in India today, covering both historical perspectives and an account of current problems and issues.
