Beginning with infancy, Usha Goswami considers the process of attachment and 'bonding', showing how secure attachments enable the development of self-understanding. Exploring childhood learning, ranging from aspects of language and thinking to cognitive reasoning, Goswami looks at how babies and toddlers develop an understanding of the physical, biological, and social worlds, and develop complex abilities like language and morality. Demonstrating how learning is shaped by the environments surrounding the child; at home, school, with peers, and in wider society, Goswami emphasizes the importance of childhood friendships and siblings for psychological development. Introducing the key theories in child psychology, Goswami explains why children develop as they do and how society can further optimize their development through the adolescent years. 650 0 $a Child psychology. 830 0 $a Very short introductions ; $v 410. 941 $a 4 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20180410015408.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826103641.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20150904011859.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20150422011501.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=36FAC3D6989711E4B97AA57FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
