Item description from seller

First Edition. Moderate bumping at top and bottom of cloth spine, elsewise a clean, tight copy sans tears, stains, discoloration, etc. with all text clear/unmarked. CONTENTS (3 Parts): One: Growth and Culture. Two: The Growing Child. Three: The Guidance of Growth. From the Introduction: " The general plan of this book is evident from the analytic table of contents. We are dealing with the growing child in a modern culture. He is endowed with innate growth capacities which express themselves psychologically in patterns of behavior. But the culture has heavy demands to make on its children. How are the natural grow th characteristics of infant and child brought into harmony with these cultural pressures? What are the relationships between the pressures of natural growth (maturation) and the pressures of the social order (acculturation)? The answers to these questions will determine our attitudes and our practices in the psychological care of infant and child." 403 pages. LG7.
