In the childhood of every human being and at the dawn of human
history there is an amazing and, until now, unexplained leap from
simple genetically programmed behaviour to language, symbolic
thinking, and culture. In The First Idea , Stanley Greenspan and
Stuart Shanker explore this missing link and offer brilliant new
insights into two longstanding questions: how human beings first
create symbols and how these abilities evolved and were transmitted
across generations over millions of years. From fascinating
research into the intelligence of both human infants and apes, they
identify certain cultural practices that are vitally important if
we are to have stable and reflective future societies.
