Inhaltsangabe

Beginning with their own research in motor, perceptual, and cognitive development, the authors (both, psychology and cognitive development, Indiana U.) raise fundamental questions about prevailing assumptions in the field. They propose a new theory of the development of cognition and action, unifying recent advances in dynamic systems theory with current research in neuroscience and neural development. In particular, they show how by processes of exploration and selection, multimodal experiences form the bases for self-organizing perception-action categories. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
