Download or read book Psychology and Epistemology written by Jean Piaget and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past knowledge was considered static, but epistemologists now take that as soon as an entity of knowledge crystallizes it must dissolve again in the current of new developments of understanding. Here Piaget brings scientific analysis, without philosophical presuppositions, to bear on the understanding of knowledge as a process. This approach to knowledge underlines the benefits of interdisciplinary studies; and Piaget puts forward specific proposals for cooperation between philosophy, linguistics, cybernetics, political economy, demography, logic, epistemology and experimental teaching methods. It is the contention of this great theoretician that such interdisciplinary work could lead to a whole "circle of sciences", in which wide-ranging disciplines would link hands in a general theory of knowledge. -- Back cover.

Download or read book Conversations with Jean Piaget written by Jean-Claude Bringuier and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What is most impressive about this book is its intelligence, its sophistication, and its charm. . . . This book presents Piaget's work and his person better than anything else that I know about."—David Elkind, Tufts University "The tone is one of constant movement from the most ordinary to the most abstruse. There are 14 conversations with 'le Patron,' some in 1969, some in 1975, and several more with co-workers in various fields. . . . In Mr. Bringuier's book, in a pleasant informal way, we see a sophisticated non-scientist exploring Piaget's domain with the master. Some of Piaget's best-known findings about children as explained along the way, but Mr. Bringuier has ways of bringing out the relation of this psychological work to the whole of Piaget's enterprise, and we get a good sense of the man and his work."—Howard E. Gruber, New York Times Book Review

Download or read book Memory And Intelligence written by Jean Piaget and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In short, the reader will be presented not only with a number of experimental facts but also with several theoretical notions, the validity of which the future alone can decide. For the rest, there is one aspect of these studies that has greatly encouraged us in our work: the surprising discovery, in a sphere apparently remote from that of cognitive operations, of a precise succession of operational stages, whose existence we ourselves might have begun to doubt had we listened to all those who do not, or rather do not yet, believe in the validity of the operational approach.
Download or read book Piaget and Knowledge written by Hans G. Furth and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1969 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here is an overall, unified approach to Piaget's psychological theory of intelligence that includes his most recent research and concepts. No other book covers the main sources from which Piaget's work stems or offers such complete understanding. The concise summation provides a general introduction at a time when the growing popularity of Piaget's theories is not always proportionate with the understanding of some of his chief theoretical notions. His theory of biological intelligence, for example, is not referred to in other books in English dealing with theoretical aspects of learning or intelligence. This book examines and interprets all of Piaget and includes reading material, mostly from Piaget's writings, available in English for the first time. Diagrams of basic concepts are used by way of illustrations. Besides introductory and summary sections, the text focuses on the five major themes of operative, symbolic, and figurative knowing, biology, and equilibration. It is a challenging book which both informs and opens up new vistas. It encourages the reader to fit familiar notions about Piaget into an overall understanding of Piaget's system. A leading interpreter whose qualifications include a year at Piaget's International Center of Genetic Epistemology in Geneva, Dr. Furth explains Piaget's key concepts and theoretical notions of psychological intelligence. His analysis interprets Piaget's theory of intelligence and clarifies how superior levels of intelligence and scientific thinking evolve from elementary forms of behavior."-Publisher.
