Opis

Originally published in 1996, Growing Critical takes a fresh look at infancy, childhood and adulthood and makes the startling claim that ‘development’ does not exist. John R. Morss surveys the range of contemporary alternatives in critical psychology from the early 1970s using developmental psychology as his focus.
