The first years of life are not preparation for brain development. They are brain development. Between birth and the age of five, the human brain forms over one million new synaptic connections every second, producing a neural architecture that is shaped as much by the environment the child inhabits as by the genetic instructions they inherited. This fully referenced article explores the neuroscience of childhood brain development, examines how early experience becomes embedded in neural structure, and confronts the implications of a society that has made the quality of that experience a function of postcode and household income.
