• Statement of Responsibility: Katherine Nelson.

Katherine Nelson re-centers developmental psychology with a revived emphasis on development and change, rather than foundations and continuity. Nelson argues that a child's entrance into the community of minds is a gradual process with enormous consequences for child development, and the adults that they become.
