Jean Piaget, one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century, had a tremendous influence on developmental psychology, education, and epistemology. 

This book illuminates the key ideas and intellectual development of this significant thinker by examining his numerous texts in the fields of biology, philosophy, psychoanalysis, child psychology, social psychology, theology, logic, epistemology, and education. 

It also focuses on the reception and influence of Piaget's work, as well as its significance in the modern era.
Richard Kohler attempts to reconstruct the often overlooked theological basis of Piaget's theories and analyzes the influence it had on various areas of his research and concerns, especially in relation to education.
