«La mente del bambino. Mente assorbente» is the essay on pedagogy and educational psychology by Maria Montessori, published by Garzanti in paperback (293 pages, in Italian).
Montessori delves into the mystery of the period in which the child's mind is organized and defines the characteristics, limits and possibilities of the first form of the child's mind: that absorbent mind that receives and retains everything, but needs nourishment for its development, just as the body needs material food.
The work belongs to the «Gli elefanti. Saggi» series by Garzanti, within the catalog of Maria Montessori's works.
Intended for educators, psychologists and parents interested in child development psychology and the Montessori method.
Maria Tecla Artemisia Montessori was an Italian physician and educator best known for her philosophy of education and her writing on scientific pedagogy. At an early age, Montessori enrolled in classes at an all-boys technical school, with hopes of becoming an engineer. She soon had a change of heart and began medical school at the Sapienza University of Rome, becoming one of the first women to attend medical school in Italy; she graduated with honors in 1896. Her educational method is in use globally in many public and private schools.
