OK, so I haven't read the whole book, but did read big chunks of it, particularly those about the theories of Jean Piaget and Lev S. Vygotsky, and the developments of their work, which I needed for an assignment (which I should be writing instead of this review!).
The layout of the concepts is clear and flows well, with internal references to topics making it easy to follow an idea through its origins, subseequent developments and current (at the time of publication) standing. An excellent show more foundational text.
This has certainly whetted my appetite to read Vygotsky's original work on the socio-culturally embedded nature of human development (sorry, Jean!). show less
