<br/><br/> "Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1908-1961) is well known for his work in phenomenology, but his lectures in child psychology and pedagogy have received little attention, probably because Talia Welsh translated the lectures in their entirety only in 2010. The Child as Natural Phenomenologist summarizes Merleau-Ponty's work in child psychology, shows its relationship to his philosophical work, and argues for its continued relevance in contemporary theory and practice."--Back cover.
