Description

Offers an enchanting and understandable account of childhood development for any person—education and psychology students, day care center workers and nursery school teachers, and parents.

Jean Piaget is arguably crucial figure of the twentieth century in the field of child psychology. Over more than six decades of studying and working with children, he brilliantly and insightfully charted the stages of a kid’s intellectual maturation from the first years to adulthood, and in doing so pioneered a new mode of understanding the changing ways in which a child comes to grab the world.

The purpose of A Piaget Primer is to make Piaget’s essential work readily accessible to teachers, therapists, students, and naturally, parents. Two noted American psychologists distill Piaget’s complex findings into wonderfully clear formulations without sacrificing either subtlety or significance. To accomplish this, they employ not only lucid language but such fascinating illuminations of a kid’s world and vision as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Winnie-the-Pooh, in addition to media manifestations like Barney and Sesame Street. This completely revised edition of this classic work is as enjoyable as it’s invaluable—an very important guide to comprehending and communicating with children better than we ever have before.
