Lifespan Development and the Brain

The Book Focuses On The Developmental Analysis Of The Brain-Culture-Environment Dynamic And Argues That This Dynamic Is Interactive And Reciprocal. Brain And Culture Co-Determine Each Other. As A Whole This Book Refutes Any Unidirectional Conception Of The Brain-Culture Dynamic. Each Is Influenced By And Modifies The Other. To Capture The Ubiquitous Reach And Significance Of The Mutually Dependent Brain-Culture System The Metaphor Of Biocultural Co-Constructivism Is Invoked. Distinguished Researchers From Cognitive Neuroscience Cognitive Psychology And Developmental Psychology Review The Evidence In Their Respective Fields. A Special Focus Of The Book Is Its Coverage Of The Entire Human Lifespan From Infancy To Old Age.
