Summary:

"The field of child psychology is almost as old as is the field of experimental psychology. It is believed that a proper and systematic presentation of the problems of child psychology, presented as problems experimentally investigated, will demonstrate a field of scientific research surprisingly full of accomplishment and of promise even to some of the experts in the field itself. The main reason for this surprise is that most of the books in child psychology have been either highly specialized monographs or highly popularized elementary textbooks. Before the first edition, there hadn't been a single volume treating the entire field of child psychology which could be useful to students already acquainted with psychology and already expert in child psychology. This volume is prepared specifically for the scholar, and its form is for his maximum convenience. The topics discussed in this volume range from the methodology of child psychology to learning in children." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA, all rights reserved).
