Sommario/riassunto

Theory of Mind Development in Context is the first book of its kind to explore how children's environment shapes their theory of mind and, in turn, their ability to interact effectively with others. Based on world-leading research, and inspired by the ground-breaking work of Candida Peterson, the collected chapters demonstrate that children's understanding of other people is shaped by their everyday environment.
