A long intellectual tradition, uniting such diverse figures as
Freud and Piaget, states that children's early fantasy life is
primitive and disorganized. In "The Work of the Imagination" Paul
Harris argues against this tradition, showing that children's
ability to imagine hypothetical and counterfactual possibilities
makes a continuing contribution to their cognitive and emotional
development. In particular, he reveals how children's ability to
entertain such possibilities is critical for making causal and
moral judgements.
Incorporating a unique, cross-cutting approach, "The Work of the
Imagination "discusses a number of key topics in cognitive
development that are usually discussed quite separately.
