The book presents and defends the "theory theory" of cognitive and semantic development, suggesting that infants and young children learn about their environment by forming and adjusting theories, akin to scientific inquiry. This perspective offers significant insights into the origins of knowledge and meaning, influencing the field of cognitive science and reshaping our understanding of child development.
