Descartes' baby : how the science of child development explains what makes us human
Bloom, Paul2004
Books
Babies have a rich understanding of the physical and social world. They expect objects to obey physical laws, but they can also read emotion and respond with anger, sympathy or joy. Bloom shows how this gives rise to such uniquely human traits such as humour, disgust, religion, art and morality.
