Excerpt from Moto-Sensory Development: Observations on the First Three Years of a Child
(It may here be said once for all by way of scientific orientation that in general the facts reported in these notes are reliable, however much at times their interpretation may be at fault. Who knows as yet the physiologic motives of infantile behavior?
"Who can tell what a baby thinks?
Who can follow the gossamer links
By which the manikin feels his way
Out from the shore of the great unknown,
Blind, and wailing, and alone,
Into the light of day?")
1st Day. L's respiration was quickly established; her cries at first were only faint; the eyes opened gradually within a few minutes after birth and were perfectly coordinated from the first. She cried very little the first day. Suction on the fingers and side of the fist was very strong and lively from the first hour. 20th hour: The eyes apparently are sensitive to light, and seem to follow slowly the moving hand and fingers. She was readily quieted when gently crying by "trotting" or even holding a hand or rubbing the forehead.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a record of the first three years of life of an unusually healthy and normally developed infant who was observed daily. The author's clear descriptions of the child's development, supported by the author's doctoral research, debunk a number of common and harmful child-rearing practices and beliefs popular at the time of publication. The book also serves as a valuable overview of the current state of scientific thinking on child development circa 1912, especially in the areas of motor development and the evolution of the intellect based on sensory stimuli. The author argues that many of the actions and reactions of infants that are typically categorized as simple reflexes are actually quite complex and well-coordinated adaptive or impulsive behaviors that stem from the development of the brain and nervous system, rather than mere stimulus-response learning. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331908920_0
