"How Children Think" is a detailed introductory manual on Cognitive Development that addresses a significant bibliographic gap in this field in our country.

It consists of three parts. The first part examines theoretical views on cognitive development, such as Piaget's theory and the information processing approach. The second part explores six specialized aspects of children's thinking: perception, speech, memory, understanding concepts, problem-solving, and the development of reading, writing, and mathematics.

The third part summarizes the key conclusions regarding various areas of children's thinking and identifies major issues for future research.

"How Children Think" seeks to answer two fundamental questions about children's thinking: "What develops?" and "How does development occur?". For these reasons, it is a valuable source of information, not only for students and educators involved in cognitive development issues but also for parents and general readers who wish to learn about how children's thinking develops from birth to the end of adolescence.
