The Essential Child : Origins of Essentialism in Everyday Thought
ISBN: 9780195181982 / Angielski / Miękka / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Essentialism is the idea that certain categories, such as "dog," "man," or "intelligence," have an underlying reality or true nature that gives objects their identity. Where does this idea come from? In this book, Susan Gelman argues that essentialism is an early cognitive bias. Young children's concepts reflect a deep commitment to essentialism, and this commitment leads children to look beyond the obvious in many converging ways: when learning words, generalizing knowledge to new category members, reasoning about the insides of things, contemplating the role of nature versus nurture, and...

When the Body Speaks : The Archetypes in the Body
ISBN: 9780415188876 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych.

It links Jung's concepts of the self and the archetypes to concepts of the primary self, as well as incorporating the work of other psychoanalysts. Lucidly written, it should be of interest to professionals and students in the fields of child and adult...

Klein's...
