First published in English in 1969, the book opens with a chapter
by Pierre Oleron on intellectual activities. These fall into three
groups: inductive activities (the apprehension of laws, relations
and concepts), reasoning and problem solving. It describes typical
methods and essential results obtained by relevant experiments.
There are two chapters by Jean Piaget and his collaborator Barbel
Inhelder. The first, on mental images, breaks new ground: it
describes original experiments carried out by Piaget and associates
with children of various ages. Piaget examines the relations
between images and motor activity, imitation, drawing and
operations. He also classifies images according to their degree of
complexity and show why children have inadequate images of some
processes. The second chapter is on intellectual operations and
Piaget gives a summary of the main findings of a number of his
earlier books, on the child's notions of conservation,
classification, seriation, number, measurement, time, speed and
chance. In the last chapter, Pierre Greco discusses learning and
intellectual structures. He describes the work of psychologists
with rats in mazes and formulating theories of animal learning.
Gestalt psychology and various other interpretations are examined
and Greco also pays attention to Piaget's view of 'structural
learning' based on experience.
