Description

The author deals with motor development, perception, cognition, and social development and considers the ways in which distinctions among these abilities are arbitrary and hinder evolution of an adequate account of infancy. Field (pediatrics, psychology, and psychiatry, U. of Miami School of Medicine) describes the recent research, focusing primarily on social- emotional development, but also considering the perceptual, cognitive, and motor development of the infant. She includes an account of the remarkable development of the fetus and a chapter on infants at risk. Paper edition (unseen), $7.95. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
