What We Know About Childcare...offers an exhaustive, evenhanded account of what the latest research proves--and what it disproves--about childcare's impact on children.
   --Pamela Kruger, Child

Clarke-Stewart and Allhusen have amassed wonderful data and detailed descriptions of the social, psychological and political issues that continue to surround childcare in the U.S. in this new millennium. Engaging such a broad audience in these issues is a difficult, but worthy task. Their effort certainly deserves much praise.
