First published in 1996. This landmark work, now available in a new paperback edition, present a synthesis of perspectives on child development that encompasses some of the world''s leading thinkers. Still timely in its distillation of the basic concepts of Freud, Piaget, Erikson, Gesell, and others, Child Development provides a truly integrated and coherent view of the child. The text is divided into three parts. First, the normal motor, psychosexual, psychosocial, cognitive, language, drawing, and encephalographic development of children are examined. The second part focuses on the expression of developmental processes in children''s drawings-more than 40 drawings allow us to see the world as children do. In the final section, these varied perspectives are integrated into a highly useful synoptic chart showing the Stages of Child Development-by itself an illuminating and practical reference.
