How Children Think and Learn by David Wood

This is the second edition of a textbook that has met with enthusiastic acclaim since its publication in 1988. It explores in detail theories and discussions of how children think and learn. It also looks at the practical implications of research and acknowledges some of the difficult problems teachers face when trying to put theory and research into practice in the classroom. Discusses important new research in developmental psychology that has taken place since the first edition was published in 1988 Provides an excellent resource for both psychology students and educationalists Includes substantially revised chapters on mathematics and classroom education

"Wood's treatment of these perplexing issues is straightforwardHe does not burden readers with philosophical jargon, does not bore readers with esoteric details, and does not offer simplistic answers...Wood brings the analytic mind of a psychologist to his book without the cluttering style of academic psychologese which undergraduates generally abhor" Scott G. Paris, APA Review of Books

The author is Professor of Psychology at the University of Nottingham.
