"È molto importante approfittare dei primi anni di vita di un figlio per stargli vicino e aiutarlo a sviluppare capacità cognitive ed emotive. Non si tratta di sottoporlo a complessi programmi di stimolazione precoce né di iscriverlo al miglior asilo del circondario.

In questo libro il neuropsicologo Álvaro Bilbao affronta i temi principali del percorso educativo illustrando i meccanismi di funzionamento del cervello.

First published more than 50 years ago, this award-winning classic brings Rachel Carson's unique vision to a new generation of listeners. The Sense of Wonder is Carson's intimate account of adventures with her young nephew, Roger, as they enjoy walks along the rocky coast of Maine and through dense forests and open fields, observing wildlife, strange plants, moonlight, and storm clouds, and listening to the "living music" of insects in the underbrush.
