The Child's Conception of Space

About this book

“A massive and most important study. . . . All teachers of young children should know the general outline of the work.” ―Evelyn Lawrence, British Journal of Educational Studies The nature of space, whether an innate idea, the outcome of experience in the external world, or an operational construction has long been a source of philosophical and speculative psychological discussion. This book deals with the development of the child’s notions about space.
