Description
How the Child's Mind Develops by David Cohen is a compelling and accessible exploration of how children's cognitive abilities evolve from infancy to adolescence. This updated third edition provides fresh insights and integrates new content, including diary extracts from a mother documenting her child’s growth.
The book addresses pressing questions such as:
• How do children learn to perceive, talk, think, and reason?
• What roles do heredity and environment play in mental development?
• How does modern technology—TV, internet, tablets, and video games—affect cognitive growth?
Cohen also revisits classic theories from major figures like Piaget, Freud, and Vygotsky while integrating the latest research in developmental psychology. He explores how children learn literacy skills, how their morality forms, how intelligence is assessed, and even delves into child crime and media influence.
Essential reading for parents, educators, psychologists, and students, this book is a thoughtful, evidence-based guide to understanding the complex inner world of children.
