This book explores some of the enduring questions in development psychology: How do children form an attachment to their caregivers? How do they learn words? In their imagination, are they confused or clear-sighted about the difference between fantasy and reality? How do they decide who to trust? In each case, Paul Harris shows why these questions are important, propose likely answers, and explains the uncertainties that persist. He outlines important landmarks, both well known and neglected, and explores broader questions about theories of mind, morality, and cultural differences. 0aChild psychology.  0aChild development.  0aDevelopmental psychology 0aChildrenxpsychology.
