From the Publisher
Integrating the contextual influences of family and school into chapters on the various aspects of development, it focuses on current models and controversies including the role of action in perception, psychoteratology, Vygotsky's sociocultural model of intelligence and the role of temperament in the assessment of attachment. Investigates child pyschology from the perspective of three principal traditions that characterize the discipline today: the cognitive/developmental approach, the environmental/learning approach and the ethological approach. Carefully selected research findings, actual examples, a running glossary and end-of-section summaries prove extremely helpful to students. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
