"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." —James Duffy, PhD Saint Mary's University of Minnesota
