New Books for and about Children: Children in Fear...A book about the fears we teach children and what parents can teach them instead. Written by a well known lecturer and teacher Stephen M. Joseph. A child's eye view...invaluable for teachers particularly in the field of mathematics and science, and fascinating for the ever-increas- ing number of young parents trying to under- stand the developmental psychology of their own children. A CHILD'S EYE VIEW, examines the im- portant implications of Piaget's theories. BASED on work carried out in the last eight years of Chorley College by Mary Sime and a team of her colleagues and students, the book begins by outlining the fundamental tenets of Piaget about a childs intellectual growth and basic concept development, and describes the re -actions of primary school children to some of the tests. The second section illustrates the paths by which young children learn to reason logically, while the third explores the progre- ss of logical thinking as the child matures in- to the adolescent and the adult.
