This exciting book by three pioneers in the new field of
cognitive science discusses important discoveries about how
much babies and young children know and learn, and how much
parents naturally teach them. It argues that evolution
designed us both to teach and learn, and that the drive to
learn is our most important instinct. It also reveals as
fascinating insights about our adult capacities and how even
young children -- as well as adults -- use some of the same
methods that allow scientists to learn so much about the
world. Filled with surprise at every turn, this vivid,
lucid, and often funny book gives us a new view of the inner
life of children and the mysteries of the mind.
