Annotation
Underlining the central role of the socio-cultural environment in mental development, this book focuses on the individual child's collaborative construction of representations -i.e. together with social others, adults and peers-, emphasizing both individual and social construction and tracing analogies with Donald's 'hybrid mind' hypothesis.
