In twelve studies, Furth combines delightful  observations of young children's spontaneous actions and interactions  with lucid descriptions of complex psychological  theories-including those of Piaget, Freud, Lacan, and Marxist  scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306453427\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4757-9987-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 263\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312310440076,"sku":"9780306453427","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306453427.jpg?v=1771524011","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780306453427","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
