Inhaltsangabe

A lively, thought-provoking book that charts the brain's development from conception through the crucial first five years of life. This informative book lays out all aspects of the brain's development, from the refinement of the faculties so immature at birth - touch, smell, vision, hearing, balance and motion - to the emergence of high cognitive functions such as language. It explores questions critical to every prospective parent. How much of a baby's development is genetically ordained? How much is determined by the environment? Is there anything parents can do to make their babies' brains work better?
