Summary:
How does a child acquire language, and what may facilitate this learning? In this book, renowned psychologist Jerome Bruner explores the child's most remarkable achievement. To carry out his investigations, Bruner went to 'the clutter of life at home, ' the childs own setting for learning, rather than observing children in a 'contrived video laboratory.'
