Childhood with Bourdieu Reviews

The book will be well received by researchers seeking to become familiar with Bourdieu's work. I am also convinced that it will become an important point of reference for scholars already familiar with the application of Bourdieu's thinking. Alanen, Brooker and Berry's edited collection will enable readers to better address and situate the complex issues children face in a quickly changing socio-technical world.
