How Infants Know Minds

Explore the fascinating world of infant cognition in How Infants Know Minds by Vasudevi Reddy. Published by Harvard University Press in 2010, this insightful book challenges the conventional belief that the development of a “theory of mind” begins only at age two or three. Reddy delves into the intriguing question of whether infants are truly unaware of the minds of others. Through her research, she presents a compelling argument that infants engage with the minds around them from a much earlier age, responding to social interactions in profound ways. With 288 pages of thought-provoking content, this paperback edition is essential for anyone interested in infant psychology, social perception, and interpersonal relations. Discover how our understanding of cognitive development is reshaped by the insights within this groundbreaking work.
