OverviewTo make sense of the world, infants have to perceive it, and research into the development of sensory and perceptual abilities is one of the most exciting and important areas of infancy research. This book aims both to reflect current knowledge of perceptual development and to point to some of many questions that remain unanswered. Each of the major sections is prefaced by introductory comments, making the book equally useful for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers, and professionals who are interested in early perceptual development and in infancy in general.

Table of ContentsReviewsThis edited collection is just what was needed, both for the advanced student and for the mature researcher. The authors are leading researchers in their fields, and together they present a rich source of authoritative and up-to-date information on infant perception which will be enormously useful both to those entering the field of infancy as researchers, and to those who already work in the field but wish to bring themselves up-to-date on research topics outside their speciality. I learned a lot reading through the manuscript, and I look forward to having my own copy of the book: it will certainly be on my essential reading list. -Gavin BremnerUniversity of Lancaster. In just over thirty years of study, infancy research has moved out of its own infancy and into the maturity of a sophisticated psychological science with scientists attacking scientific questions from the philosophical to the methodological to the descriptive to the explanatory. This book is one tribute to developmental psychology in general, and a special tribute to progress which has been made in a special field, infant perception. -Marc Bornstein.
