Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the core of human psychology, exploring the profound transformation we undergo from helpless newborns to complex adults. Challenging traditional notions, the author argues that our development is not merely a struggle against primal instincts but a journey of active engagement with the world. Drawing inspiration from the works of Darwin and Freud, the author delves into the intricate interplay between our evolutionary past and the shaping of our emotional and cognitive capacities. Rather than viewing emotions as disruptive forces, this book highlights their crucial role in guiding our actions, fostering connection, and driving our exploration of the environment. Through insightful observations of infants and children, the author sheds light on the emergence of key psychological functions such as perception, attention, and memory. This book invites us to reconsider the very essence of human nature, emphasizing our innate drive to connect with the world and realize our full potential. Ultimately, this book reveals the intricate dance between our biological heritage and the vast possibilities that unfold as we navigate the path from embeddedness to self-realization.
