Creative Development in the Child

Step back in time with this compilation of Dr. Montessori's lectures from her 1939 course in India. Reading these lectures, in order, is like being in Madras for the course itself. The 75 lectures are presented in the order in which they were given, switching between psychology and the use of materials.

In this book, Montessori discusses how India’s diversity of languages, social customs, and religious practice have enriched her research. She put her theories of adapting the environment, furniture, and practical life materials to local conditions into practice while working with children in Madras.
