Biography

Victoria J. Molfese, Victoria J. Molfese

"...the Molfese's have gathered together a small, but influential set of research reviews into a quite accessible volume, which provides a nice summary of the current state of developmental/cognitive science....The strength of this book is its emphasis on the variety of areas of cognitive development that directly impact current concerns in pediatric neuropsychology and school psychology....serves as a useful set of reviews for the clinician looking to better understand the need to consider individual variation in cognitive and social development, and for the researcher seeking an up-to-date account of methods available for addressing this issue."
