Review # 1 was written on 2019-12-30 00:00:00 Timothy Jennett OK, I'll be honest. I didn't finish this. But I read a lot of it for my final project in one of my psych classes. Piaget is a fascinating person, and his ideas deeply influenced much of the modern understanding of psychology. He is particularly interesting in his study of childhood development and the process of learning.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-03-08 00:00:00 Thomas Oliver Accommodation, assimilation, object permanence, self conceptualization, etc. These are all terms and concepts that Piaget addresses with regard to intellectual development. By looking at children, how they behave, and how that behavior changes over time, Piaget has uncovered some interesting aspects concerning our cognitive development. He gains much of this information firsthand by witnessing and thoroughly recording the details of his own children as they grow up. Psychology is a field that fascinated me as I'm interested in the evolution of the psyche and self-consciousness. I believe that by examining the ontogenic evolution of humans, we can better understand our phylogenetic evolution. Developmental psychology is perhaps the best place to start with regard to the most important aspects of our ontogeny.
