The Collected Works of L. S. Vygotsky (eBook, PDF)

The History of the Development of Higher Mental Functions
Redaktion: Rieber, Robert W. / Übersetzer: Hall, Marie J.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In this volume, readers are introduced to Vygotsky's argument for a theoretical and methodological approach to differentiate A "higher" mental functions from the more basic brain processes that other theorists believed were at the center of the psychological apparatus. The famed Soviet psychologist's view of developmental issues as an intricately woven tapestry of functions includes analyses of:

- the development of speech and written language - the mastering of attention and mnemonic skills - self-control and the higher, more cultivated forms of behavior - the cultural age, personality, and world view of children.

Rezensionen

"All academic libraries, even those in two-year colleges, should add these volumes to their collections." (Choice, February 1998) "The Collected Works in English are particularly valuable because a broad and honest reading of Vygotsky challenges common assumptions about psychology. By building on Vygotsky's more promising insights, psychology might have a better chance of overcoming the divisions it still faces." (American Scientist, May - June 1998)
