Review # 1 was written on 2019-09-24 00:00:00 Diane Delaney The premise of the book is sensible: giving various experiences to your child in the first three years is essential for development. Listening to sounds, playing games, learning different languages, observing nature, even practicing musical instruments are all good ways to accelerate mental growth. The author was not only the founder of Sony, but also a passionate advocate of early child development. He wrote the book in the early 1970s and apparently his views seemed progressive at the time. He also provided a dozen of psychological studies to prove his point. While I agree on the importance of the pre-kindergarden years, I just don't believe that they determine the most part of the future genius / mediocre life. The following years are crucial for developing communication, team work, analytics and many other skills. So if the book's idea is that the first three years determine 80% of success, I believe the number is around 30%. It's not too late to develop your child after three.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-01-01 00:00:00 Mikhail Prokhin My expectation was too high. If you've read a lot of modern books on this subject, there's almost nothing new here. I even disagreed with the author on some points. However, overall, he delivers a good message despite basing his suggestions on opinions, not data. Easy reading too. 2.5 stars
