ISBN: 9780805842487 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years, there has been a proliferation of theoretical and empirical scholarship on how issues of human separateness, or independence, and issues of human connectedness, or interdependence, are played out in diverse cultural contexts.

Developmental Pathways Through Middle Childhood: Rethinking Contexts and Diversity as Resources
ISBN: 9780805851991 / Angielski / Twarda / 710 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When can contexts and diversity be resources, rather than risks, for children's developmental pathways? Scholars, policy makers, and practitioners increasingly realize that middle childhood matters as a time when children's pathways diverge, as they meet new and overlapping contexts they must navigate on their way to adolescence and adulthood. This volume shines new light on this important transition by tracing how these contexts -- cultural, economic, historical, political, and social -- can support or undermine children's pathways, and how children's own actions and the actions of those...

This special issue is organized into three parts--moral, civic, and cultural and religous identity--but are not exclusive in their focus on these themes as many of the sections provide a more integrated...

Evolution's Eye: A Systems View of the Biology-Culture Divide
ISBN: 9780822324720 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent decades, Susan Oyama and her colleagues in the burgeoning field of developmental systems theory have rejected the determinism inherent in the nature/nurture debate, arguing that behavior cannot be reduced to distinct biological or environmental causes. In "Evolution's Eye" Oyama elaborates on her pioneering work on developmental systems by spelling out that work's implications for the fields of evolutionary theory, developmental and social psychology, feminism, and epistemology. Her approach profoundly alters our understanding of the biological processes of development and evolution...

Agency : Its Role In Mental Development
ISBN: 9780863772283 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Children's Drawings of the Human Figure
ISBN: 9780863772689 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The human figure is one of the earliest topics drawn by the young child and remains popular throughout childhood and into adolescence. When it first emerges, however, the human figure in the child's drawing is very bizarre: it appears to have no torso and its arms, if indeed it has any, are attached to its head. Even when the figure begins to look more conventional the child must still contend with a variety of problems: for instance, how to draw the head and body in the right proportions and how to draw the figure in action.
In this book, Maureen Cox traces the development of the human... The human figure is one of the earliest topics drawn by the young child and remains popular throughout childhood and into adolescence. When it first e...

The Understanding of Causation and the Production of Action: From Infancy to Adulthood
ISBN: 9780863773419 / Angielski / Twarda / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is an attempt to trace out a line of development in the understanding of how things happen from origins in infancy to mature forms of adulthood. There are two distinct but related ways in which people understand things as happening, denoted by the terms "causation" and "action". The book is concerned with both. The central claim and organising principle of the book is that, by the end of the second year of life, children have differentiated two core theories of how things happen. These theories deal with causation and action. The two theories have a common point of origin in the...

Parenting Behaviour and Children's Cognitive Development
ISBN: 9780863774027 / Angielski / Twarda / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The association between parents' behaviour and children's cognitive development is at the meeting-place of several prominent theories of psychological development and a range of complex methodological and conceptual issues. On the one hand there are theories which argue that the impetus of development is within the child and is largely unaffected by his or her experience of social interaction; on the other are the commonsense experience of parents and educators and the body of neo-Vygotskian theory, which would see the child's development as profoundly affected by social interaction or even...
