About this title

Review

The editor's choices provide a clear and fertile path through the otherwise overwhelming mass of Piaget's work... Beautifully orchestrated, the whole illuminates the parts and the parts clarify one another. -- Jeanne Bamberger, Massachusetts Institute of Technology To live up to its title, this volume ... should be seen as 'necessary' by anyone with a serious interest in Piaget; it should encapsulate in its 900-odd pages the principal features of its subject. Without question, The Essential Piaget succeeds on both accounts. -- Howard Gardner, Harvard University Through its completeness, its logical organization, and its sensitive commentaries, The Essential Piaget gives a clear and valuable picture of the man as seen in his work. -- Barbel Inhelder, University of Geneva
