Alison Gopnik
“We decided to become development psychologists and study children because there aren't any Martians. These brilliant beings with the little bodies and big heads are the closest we can get to a truly alien intelligence (even if we may occasionally suspect that they are bent on making us their slaves.)”
Alison Gopnik , The Scientist in the Crib: What Early Learning Tells Us About the Mind
