Reviews / Votes
"The application of neuroscientific approaches to the development of social and cognitive behavior is a ... fast-developing field. This book provides expert guidance on what is known-- and what remains to be learned-- about how studies of brain function inform our understanding of developmental transitions in social development from infancy to adulthood. The chapters are thoughtful, masterful, and will be a valuable resource for both the educated novice and seasoned professional." - Seth D. Pollak, University of Wisconsin - Madison, USA"This comprehensive book ... will provide a valuable resource for both professionals and graduate students who seek a deeper understanding of how the social mind develops." - Jean Decety, University of Chicago, USA
"This is a wonderful book. It provides a timely set of contributions at a key time in the emergence of an exciting new field. This work represents a new wave of advances in cognitive neuroscience-one that emphasizes a synthesis and integration of several different lines of investigation-creating a new frontier in understanding the normal and abnormal development of the most fundamentally human (social) aspects of cognition." - Ronald Dahl, University of Pittsburgh, USA
