Synopsis

Presents a developmental approach to children and their understanding of space and spatial relationships. Traces development from the earliest concepts of the self in space, through the location of objects, to movement through the immediate area, route and landmark learning, and the development of images of distant places. Also covers applied topics--includes a detailed chapter on the special problems of blind children and techniques for working with them.
