This book explores how schoolchildren and adolescents employ language in different communicative settings. The authors demonstrate how language development is affected by the language and culture in which it evolves, and use brain studies to provide a deeper explanation of developmental changes in language behavior.

This book provides a description of pre-literate children's developing ideas about writing and numerals, and it illustrates the many ways in which cultural artifacts influence the mind and vice versa.
