EARLY CHILDHOOD CARE, DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION

Given that a state may achieve and enjoy emancipation, liberation, and empowerment of the citizens as practice, it may only be realized through education. This is especially of citizens in their early childhood in an atmosphere where the fundamental human rights of the citizens¿ pursuit of other socio-political and socio-moral ideals are guaranteed. This book is an eye-opener for readers who have not previously given much thought on the new direction in education and educational provision in Nigeria for achieving welfare ideals and empowerment associated with social justice and human right in early childhood care, development, and education. True as a book with educational philosophy¿s bent, coloration and leanings, it can admit and boast of inclusiveness, originality and as a well-researched material. This study provides a neutral template for assessing a burning educational issue.
