Written by Herbert Ginsburg and Sylvia Opper of Cornell University, this foundational text chronicles the groundbreaking cognitive developmental theory of Jean Piaget, presenting his revolutionary ideas about how children construct knowledge through distinct stages — from sensorimotor infancy to formal operational thinking — with clarity and scholarly precision. The authors unpack Piaget's core concepts of assimilation, accommodation, and equilibration, illustrating how these mechanisms drive the child's evolving understanding of the world, and grounding abstract theory in concrete, observable behaviour.\n\nBeyond its role as a primer, the work stands as a significant contribution to developmental psychology and educational theory, synthesising decades of Piaget's dense primary research into a form that is both rigorous and illuminating. Ginsburg and Opper write with an authoritative yet accessible voice, making this volume an indispensable resource for students, educators, and researchers alike. For anyone seeking to understand the cognitive architecture of the human mind from birth through adolescence, this introduction raises as many profound questions as it answers — leaving the reader with a transformed perspective on the very nature of intelligence itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203263733979,"sku":"2026200015971-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/12036379-a0ac-493e-a7d5-e24445e79abb.png?v=1788146822","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015971-secondhand-piagets-theory-of-intellectual-development-an-introduction","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
