About This Item
Gabriola Island, BC, Canada: New Society Publishers, Limited, 1990. Book. Very Good. Soft cover. Slight cover wear. Nice, clean, tight, unmarked copy. From Library Journal: "There is a growing concern among parents, teachers, and others about the proliferation of warlike toys, rampantly marketed and enthusiastically greeted by our nation's children. Here, two educators explore the often developmentally necessary role of aggressive play in childhood, demonstrate how most of the current Rambo-type toys actually undermine the potential value of such play, offer a number of creative alternatives to these toys, and suggest ways in which individuals can help to affect public policy to discourage this trend (e.g., by urging tighter regulation of children's television). A sound and effective treatment of an important topic, recommended for most public libraries.".
