The definitive account of children’s cognitive development by the renowned psychologist Jean Piaget “Piaget’s stress on the interaction of biological functions and the structure of the environment…was, in the opinion of many psychologists and education specialists, as liberating and as revolutionary as Sigmund Freud's.”— New York Times Jean Piaget’s influence on child psychology is unmatched. His pathbreaking investigations and theories of cognitive development sent psychological research in new directions, and his influence has an ever-growing impact on the culture at large. In The Psychology of the Child , Jean Piaget and his long-time collaborator Bärbel Inhelder offer a definitive presentation of Piaget’s research and theories of how cognitive processes develop. Through intensive interviews and observations, Piaget realized that cognition develops over time, in response to one’s environment, and with exposure to new information. Through his exemplary descriptions of a child’s cognitive development from infancy to adolescence, this classic book gives readers a broad and nuanced understanding of how intelligence unfolds. Review: Great book - It’s a really good book Review: A Important book for teachers, parents libraries. - Jean Piaget was a genius. If you're a new parent you can follow your children's maturity and grasp of concepts almost exactly in step with this book. I bought my first copy in 1976. This was for a friend who needed something to help raise his child. Best primer for parenting and teaching.

More than just child development
Piaget isn't interested in children per se, but rather intelligence. Observing intelligence at different stages of development provides insight into what intelligence actually entails and how it functions. As someone who studies cognitive psychology, Piaget provides one of the most concrete and comprehensive descriptions of intelligence that I've found in the literature. I highly recommend this book as an introduction, although I'll say it is just an introduction, and many of the ideas he discusses here cannot be fully understood without further reading.

Somewhat Confusing
Piaget ( and the individual who translated) needs to boil this theory down to something more readable and understandable. Piaget himself is amazing! He just needs to share that with the world.

The birth of a field by the father of psycholinguistics
This is one of around twenty books by Piaget about various aspects of child develop. It is the preeminent example of good science and the founding evidence for our understanding of how children learn language and learn about their physical, social and cultural world. It is a must read still today for anyone working in the area of child language, child learning, children's intelligence or children's deficits.
