Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - ''A Comparative Study of the Play Activities of Adult Savages and Civilized Children: An Investigation of the Scientific Basis of Education'' is a book written by Lilla Estelle Appleton and published in 1910. The book is a comparative study of the play activities of adult savages and civilized children, with the aim of investigating the scientific basis of education. Appleton explores the play activities of various indigenous groups, such as the Eskimos, the Australian aborigines, and the Native Americans, and compares them to the play activities of children in Western societies. She argues that the play activities of these indigenous groups are more closely aligned with the natural instincts of human beings, and that Western societies have lost touch with these instincts due to industrialization and modernization.The book also examines the role of play in education, and argues that play should be an integral part of the educational process. Appleton suggests that play allows children to explore and develop their natural instincts, and that it can be used as a tool for teaching important life skills, such as cooperation and problem-solving.Overall, ''A Comparative Study of the Play Activities of Adult Savages and Civilized Children'' is a thought-provoking exploration of the role of play in education and the ways in which different cultures approach play. It provides valuable insights into the importance of play in human development and offers a fresh perspective on the scientific basis of education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book compares the play activities of children with those of several indigenous groups, such as the Veddahs, Australians, Bushmen, Yahgans, and Eskimos, through the lens of genetic psychology. By applying systematic comparative methods, the author presents insights into the complexities of physical and mental development of both children and adults. The analysis suggests that both groups, children and indigenous adults, demonstrate similarities in physical expression and social characteristics. However, over time, substantial differentiation has occurred, resulting in higher levels of abstraction and intellectual capacity among civilized children. This book provides a framework for understanding the complex relationship between biology and psychology, with significant implications for education and psychology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
