MONTESSORIANA 1 - Maria Montessori and neuroscience

An educationalist who studies childhood but who is intrigued by the results of neuroscientific research and an avant-garde neuroscientist exploring the potential repercussions of his findings on education: two avid researchers meet and engage in conversation. Together, they focus on the striking similarities with discoveries made by Maria Montessori over a century ago that still flourish today in the educational practice inspired by her. Unique on the international scene, the book is a work of detailed comparison without being academic, indeed a useful and fascinating read for parents, educators, students and scholars.
