Vygotsky is widely considered one of the most significant and
influential psychologists of the twentieth century. Nevertheless,
true appreciation of his theories has been hindered by a lack of
understanding of the background to his thought. Vygotsky's
Developmental and Educational Psychology aims to demonstrate how we
can come to a new and original understanding of Vygotsky's theories
through knowledge of their cultural, philosophical and historical
context. Beginning with the main philosophical influences of
Marxist and Hegelian thought, this book leads the reader through
Vygotsky's life and the development of his own psychology. Central
areas covered include: * The child, the levels and consciousness *
Motivation and cognition * The relevance of Vygotsky's theories to
current research in developmental psychology. This comprehensive
survey of Vygotsky's thought will prove an invaluable resource for
those studying developmental psychology or education.
