Opis

A person's values affects profoundly what he/she attends to, thinks about and remembers. This text begins with an overview of what is known about the developmental role of valuation in the acquisition of knowledge and examines ideas of the connection between evaluation and thinking.

Recenzje

"Overall, I found the collection of essays provocative and especially important for conceiving the apprehension of values as a form of knowledge within a complex web of social and cultural contexts. It is recommended for those exploring Piaget's thought and striving to carry it forward, as well as developmental psychologists, hermeneutical philosophers, and social ethicists."
