| Summary |
"The book upon which Dr. Hazlitt was engaged at the time of her death was designed to follow the development of children from infancy to adolescence in the same detailed and critical manner as in the following pages. Only the first section was finished, but it is obvious that it has a completeness which justifies its publication. As it stands it offers to students a standard at which to aim in the prosecution of research and for the general reader it is a source of reliable data on the psychology of early years, much of which is not easily accessible"--Preface.
