Harvard University Press20051 online resource (236 p.)Description based upon print version of record.9780674018839 0674018834 Includes bibliographical references (p. [197]-210) and index.What we see and what we miss -- A glance backward: what have we learned about children? -- Spheres of reality in childhood -- Toward a more complete understanding of children -- Why this matters, and to whom.Engel argues that the "scientist in a crib" view held by many parents and teachers encourages them to expect more logical reasoning and emotional self-control from children than they possess. She provides a concise and valuable overview of what modern developmental psychologists have learned about children's developing powers of perception and capacity for reasoning, but also suggests new ways of studying children that better capture the truth about their young minds.Cognition in childrenCognition in children.155.4/1377.55bclEngel Susan938777MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957865903321Real kids4358501UNINA
