Child Psychology – Jean Piaget

Jean Piaget, a founding figure in developmental psychology, presents his revolutionary theory on how intelligence develops in children. From the reflexes of the newborn to the abstract thinking of the adolescent, Piaget describes the stages of cognitive development and explains how children construct their understanding of the world. This reference work, co-authored with Bärbel Inhelder, remains essential reading for parents, educators and psychologists seeking to understand the mechanisms of childhood learning. A fundamental text in the field of educational sciences.
