"The Child's Creation of a Pictorial World constitutes real, needed progress in the literature on child art. It offers systematic evidence in many areas in which people in the field have been going on mere assumptions, and it views the whole field from a theoretical vantage point that supersedes many by now outdated assumptions. It also offers a better integration of two areas that so far have been poorly related, namely the clinical and diagnostic approach on the one hand and the developmental and cognitive one on the other. . . . A must for anybody concerned with the artwork of children, that is, people in art education, developmental psychology, and education in general. The writing is lucid, concrete, and systematic. . . . Originality, high scientific level, and intellectual acuity combine with the human presence of an author thoroughly devoted to young life."--Rudolf Arnheim, author of Art and Visual PerceptionGolomb, Claire is the author of 'Child's Creation of a Pictorial World' with ISBN 9780520070844 and ISBN 0520070844.
