| Summary |
"The choice of the present volume, The First Year of Life, as an introduction to Charlotte Bhler's work is a fortunate one; for not only is it one of the most fundamental of her books, but also it presents the essence of her procedures and her method and demonstrates the logical and convincing way in which she draws her inferences from the data. The laboratory work on which this book is based was carried out in that already famous institution, "Kinderbernahmsstelle der Gemeinde Wien." There Dr. Bhler with her small group of assistants performed the tasks required with scientific detachment and unwearying persistence. The tests are the particular contribution of Fr. Kthe Wolf. She planned the experiments and did the laboratory work in connection with them. They are the natural and expected corollary of the "normal day cycle," testing and proving that initial work at the same time. Recent retesting in Vienna has demonstrated the validity of the tests, and they are at the present time being tried out in American child research institutions"--Preface.
