How the Brain and Mind Develop in the First Five Years of Life</I> will undoubtedly make you a better parent. It is thick, detailed, and scientific. But it is also accessible to parents who have the time and patience to immerse themselves in the latest research on brain development. And for those who do, the rewards can be great. <p> You'll understand the inner workings of the brain like never before. You'll learn the latest thinking on the nature vs. nurture question. You'll gain invaluable insights into the evolution of the senses, motor skills, social and emotional growth, memory, language, and intelligence. But most importantly, you'll understand--maybe for the first time--exactly how great your contribution as a parent can be to the development of your young child's brain. Written by Lise Eliot, Ph.D., a neurobiologist and mother of three, <I>What's Going on in There?</I> is an immensely intelligent labor of love. It is based on the author's own "odyssey of discovery" as she sought answers to questions about her own role in carrying, delivering, and parenting her children. <I>--Kelley Smith</I> 140007 1999 What's Going on in There? : How the Brain and Mind Develop in the First Five Years of Life total:198|5:70|4:81|3:37|2:9|1:1| 198 804 362 65 4 1 false false Sat Jun 28 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jan 19 20:26:44 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 19 20:26:44 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Nov 09 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 12 19:39:57 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 12 19:44:28 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 1 false false Sun Mar 08 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Sep 11 06:12:53 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 11 08:36:29 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Mar 15 11:29:27 -0700 2008 Tue May 27 08:59:22 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Thu Nov 15 02:11:34 -0800 2007 Thu Nov 15 02:23:22 -0800 2007 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue May 27 07:07:28 -0700 2008 Tue May 27 07:14:46 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Aug 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 19 15:22:56 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 19 15:26:49 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 true false Sat Nov 21 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 21 09:25:41 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 21 09:28:16 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Dec 25 16:15:38 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 25 16:17:55 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Mar 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 15 10:17:26 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 15 10:19:31 -0700 2009
