| Summary: | "In this edition I have tried to bring the 1940 version up to date, and I have tried also to remedy certain shortcomings in the old text while preserving qualities that were well received. The present text takes more adequate account of the interplay between forces in the growing organism and the impact of various aspects of development upon each other. The present edition also draws more attention than did its predecessor to the question as to what a child's overt behavior reveals about his private thoughts and feelings. More consideration is also given to the influence of the cultural environment and the attitudes of others on a child's behavior and adjustment. More prominence has been given to principles and generalizations, but in this edition, as in the preceding ones, I have cited freely from the research literature in presenting generalizations as well as supporting details"--Preface.
