Growing Minds

Interest in the human mind is a centuries old fascination, dating back to Plato, Aristotle, and Descartes. While the theories proposed about the human mind have since advanced and evolved, the fascination remains. "Growing Minds" is a unique and interdisciplinary work that guides the reader through an examination of the human mind's nature, performance, lifespan, and variations. The text is organized into three parts: the first provides a summary and evaluation of research conducted on the human mind by experimental cognitive psychology, differential psychology, and developmental psychology. The second presents an overarching theory of the growing mind, showing how mind and intelligence are at the crossroads of nature and nurture; and the third assesses the relationship between education and intelligence. -- From publisher's description. 9781138689848 113868984X 333 SCIENCE NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=pjWKtAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
