Contemporary Constructions of the Child : Essays in Honor of William Kessen Paperback / softback

Edited by Frank S. (University of New Mexico, USA) Kessel, Marc H. (NICHD, USA, the Institute for Fiscal Studies, and UNICEF.) Bornstein, Arnold J. Sameroff

Part of the Psychology Revivals series

Paperback / softback

Description

Originally published in 1991, this volume contains critical state-of-the-art essays on significant aspects of children's development and developmental inquiry.

Among the topics examined: infant perception, action and social cognition; concept development and language; children's play; parent education; children with autism and Tourette’s Syndrome; pediatrics and child development; and science, practice, and gender roles in early child psychology.

A distinctive unifying theme arises from the contributors’ discussions of substantive ideas in the context of their own impressive intellectual biographies.

While providing a collective case-study in the recent history of ideas, the contributors honor the intellectual and personal influence of William Kessen.
