Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience is concerned with the relation between the developing brain and the emergence of psychological abilities during infancy and childhood. This rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field integrates and incorporates information from both normal and abnormal development, in both humans and other species. By tackling fundamental issues such as plasticity and maturation of the developing brain, books in the series are of interest not only to developmental psychologists, but also to cognitive neuroscientists, computational modellers, philosophers, and clinicians.
