Weinstein\u003c\/b\u003e (Editor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a developmental psychologist with a strong interest in children's re- sponse to the physical environment, I take particular pleasure in writing a foreword to the present volume. It provides impressive evidence of the con- cern that workers in environmental psychology and environmental design are displaying for the child as a user of the designed environment and indi- cates a recognition of the need to apply theory and findings from develop- mental and environmental psychology to the design of environments for children. This seems to me to mark a shift in focus and concern from the earlier days of the interaction between environmental designers and psy- chologists that occurred some two decades ago and provided the impetus for the establishment of environmental psychology as a subdiscipline. Whether because children-though they are consumers of designed environments- are not the architect's clients or because it seemed easier to work with adults who could be asked to make ratings of environmental spaces and comment on them at length, a focus on the child in interaction with en- vironments was comparatively slow in developing in the field of environ- ment and behavior. As the chapters of the present volume indicate, that situation is no longer true today, and this is a change that all concerned with the well-being and optimal functioning of children will welcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 346\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.74 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 29, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52490732699941,"sku":"9781468452297","price":89.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/5104\/0293\/files\/eG5wVDluTk80alBCYXo2NG5sLzg3Zz09.webp?v=1780082284","url":"https:\/\/world-safari-shops.myshopify.com\/products\/spaces-for-children-the-built-environment-and-child-development-paperback","provider":"World Safari Shops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
