How are we to understand the complex forces that shape human
behavior? A variety of diverse perspectives, drawing upon studies
of human behavioral ontogeny, as well as humanity's evolutionary
heri tage, seem to provide the best likelihood of success. It is in
the attempt to synthesize such potentially disparate approaches to
human devel opment into an integrated whole that we undertake this
series on the Genesis of Behavior. In many respects, the incredible
burgeoning of research in child development over the last decade or
two seems like a thousand lines of inquiry spreading outward in an
incoherent starburst of effort. The need exists to provide, on an
ongoing basis, an arena of discourse within which the threads of
continuity between those diverse lines of research on human
development can be woven into a fabric of meaning and
understanding. Scientists, scholars, and those who attempt to
translate their efforts into the practical realities of the care
and guidance of infants and children are the audience that we seek
to reach. Each requires the opportunity to see-to the degree that
our knowledge in given areas permits-various aspects of development
in a coherent, integrated fashion. It is hoped that this series,
which will bring together research on infant biology, developing
infant capacities, animal models, the impact of social, cultural,
and familial forces on development, and the distorted products of
such forces under certain circumstances, will serve these important
social and scientific needs."
