First Edition
Hard Back. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. WeIntraub, Shelley - Jacket Design (illustrator). First Edition. 352 Pages Indexed by Name and Subject. Tan cloth with black lettering on the spine. No marks or stamps. Interior text pages are flawless. Herbert G. Birch was a moving force in the field of psychology, with a particularly strong interest in cognitive growth and development. In this commemorative volume, experts who worked with Birch explore important issues for our understanding of cognitive growth and developmental processes. Part I focuses on Perceptual Processes. Each chapter in this part develops a special theory of perception, emphasizing the biological and neuropsychological bases of the way a child sees the world. The contributors consider the origin of differences in perception associated with gender; approach-withdrawal theory and infant development; the neuropsychological significance of finger recognition; early perception of orientation; perceptual asymmetries in relation to reading proficiency; and the effects of cerebral damage on information processing. Part II deals with Intellectual Processes, covering diverse influences on the development of intelligence, as well as methodological issues. Topics include the controversy around the relationship between race and intelligence; heterogeneity in children with neurological impairment; the influence of birth order and family size on mental and physical development; and the effects of perinatal nutritional deprivation on intellectual development. Part III provides three views of Complex Processes and Complex Behaviors which affect cognitive growth. Chapters focus on temperament and the dynamic of development; psychopathologic; mechanisms in autism. This volume is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the psychology of human development.
