Jean Piaget

Ugh. Such horrible memories.

You see, apparently the correct pronunciation of that name is "pee-AHH-zhey." I had to record a Psychology textbook once, and the voiceactor could not for the freaking life of him get that name right. Not once did he get it on the first take. And there were many, many chapters devoted to the guy.

When I had a kid of my own a couple of the assertions he made went out the window!
He did do a great work. Piaget made a life's work observing and the developmental stages of children and they still apply in my opinion. I don't know if I agree that all persons must go through all stages because 20 years later I am quite sure some folks have skipped a stage or two.
