Research on the development of human infants has revealed
remarkable capacities in recent years. Instead of stressing the
limitations of the newborn, the modern approach is now more
optimistically based on an assessment of the adaptive capabilities
of the infant. Innate endowment, coupled with interaction with the
physical and social environment, enables a developmental transition
from processes deeply rooted in early perception and action to the
cognitive and language abilities typical of the toddler.; This book
reviews a number of issues in early human development. It includes
a reconceptualization of the role of perception at the origins of
development, a reconciliation of psychophysical and ecological
approaches to early face perception, and building bridges between
biological and psychological aspects of development in terms of
brain structure and function. Topics covered include basic
exploratory processes of early visual systems in early perception
and action; face perception in newborns, species typical aspects of
human communication, imitation, perception of the phonetic
structure of speech, origins of the pointing gesture, handedness
origins and development, theoretical contributions on perception
and cognition, implicit and explicit knowledge in babies;
sensory-motor coordination and cognition, information processing
and cognition, perception, habituation and the development of
intelligence from infancy.
