To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
e. to make in succession a series of differentiations breaking up the unity into a finer and still finer range of discriminations. To the baby in the cradle a coloured ball is not a separate object, but just a stimulus which evokes an immediate response: he has not differentiated between himself and the object, or between the object and the activity which it calls forth. For the grown man the same stimulus, if it secures his attention at all, calls up an inconceivably complex response: and for ...every adult the re- sponse will be different. The task of the psy- chologist is to describe the order of this process of differentiation; to interpret, that is, the relation of overt acts to the whole field of con- sciousness — and not merely to some mental power, such as imagination or fear — finding meaning and consequence in the child's behaviour as observed in its setting here and now. During the last forty years, beginning STAGES OF GROWTH 85 with Preyer's First Three Years of Childhood, many investigators have recorded with wealth of detail the items of infant behaviour, but, unfortunately, much of the work is discounted by the attempt to interpret the phenomena in terms of adult functioning, whereas the very purpose of the inquiry is to discover how the simple resources of the child, functioning in his child world, enable him to grow to the wholly different being with a mind which functions as adult man.
