Graduate students and scholars alike will learn much about the evolution of the field of developmental psychology [and] will be struck by how truly pioneering and forward thinking many of these psychologists ideas were. ... Appropriate for graduate courses in history, systems, or theories of psychology." - Tasha R. Howe, Humboldt State University, USA "This is a refreshing examination of the history of developmental psychology. Not only are the usual pioneers such as Vygotsky, Gesell and Piaget represented but some of the less well recognized albeit important contributors are included as well. This volume is a reminder of how much we can learn from our forebears. A valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in developmental psychology, the history of psychology and education, the book will also be a must read for historically-minded scholars." - Ross D. Parke, Emeritus, University of California, Riverside, USA "An irresistible collection of in-depth biographical essays that are both provocative and satisfying. No serious student of development should be without it. A splendid collection -- sometimes surprising, always satisfying. The choice to focus on developmental psychology in this volume adds immeasurably to an already remarkable series." - John D. Hogan, St. Johns University, USA "The behavioral arc of experience begins in childhood, a perspective championed by the pioneers profiled in this wonderful volume. Pickren, Dewsbury, and Wertheimers authors crafted scholarly, accessible, and personal portraits of major theorists who shaped developmental psychology. The results are engaging, enlightening reading." - Dana S. Dunn, Professor of Psychology, Moravian College, USA "A major and significant contribution to the history of psychology ... the selected developmental psychologists are a worthy bunch. ... The book [is] appropriate for History and Systems of Psychology ... and the first year course taken by our applied developmental psychology students. ... I would use the book in my own course and would recommend it to my colleagues." Mark E. Mattson, Fordham University, USA "The volume will make a valuable contribution to the scholarship in the history of psychology. ... [It] could be used [for courses] on the history of psychology, history of developmental psychology [or] developmental theory. The psychologists selected made significant contributions [to] developmental psychology. " Harry Heft, Denison University, USA "The authors all appear to have been carefully chosen for their expertise. I would read it, and recommend it to my library." Brian D. Cox, Hofstra University, USA "The chapters were quite interesting and informative. ... Students would find the writing very accessible. ... I would recommend it highly. The editors are all well known historians. ... [It] will complement a standard book on the history of psychology. ...The authors have chosen notable psychologists whose work has had a significant impact on the discipline." Barney Beins, Ithaca College, USA
