- Double-weighted statement
- This important critical monograph explores the tensions that exist between play and playwork, including appropriate definitions and the conflict around the role of the adult. It proposes a play-to-playwork continuum, where playing can be considered a 'developmental and evolutionary' activity, and playwork a 'compensatory' activity. It is structured around aspects considered by Brown to be most important in playwork.
