Riassunto

How does the mind develop, from ovum to adolescence? This book provides a thorough review, from classic studies to the radical new insights of recent research. Written for students new to the topic, the text presents complex ideas through familiar analogies and concrete illustrations and conveys the excitement of research in this dynamically expanding field. With its emphasis on critical understanding of research methods as well as current theories, this book makes an ideal introduction to the study of cognitive development.
