"What stands out is the excellent and up-to-date selection of essays in the volume on infant development which offered a very good balance between theory and empirical research." Infancia y Aprendizaje, vol 24(1), 2001.

"If you have the time, read it. If you do not have the time, find it somehow". Ruth Coppard, Educational Psychology in Practice, Vol 18, 2002

"Infant Development: The Essential Readings is accessible to the reader, illustrates the current work and controversies in the field, and shows diversity of research topics, according to the general definition of the parameters of the field. It is an informative source of information for anyone interested in learning about current research in infant developmental psychology. The editors have succeeded in the important task of providing an update on the research that has occurred in the past decade. Very few books with comparable information have been published since the 1980s. Although there are many volumes that focus on a narrower aspect of recent infant developmental research and many more than explain theories and applications of research to parents, this book discusses the theories and provides comprehensive and contextual information on a wider range of research in the field." Sarah Duman, University of Southern California, APA Review of Books, December 2003
