...such test, the young subject is held in his mother's lap within reach of a puzzle box. Behind a sliding transparent panel, a toy is placed to snare the subject's attention. To collect this fascinating prize, the baby must hold the panel open while plundering the box of its contents. Bruner's youngest subjects -under one year-typically reach for the toy with one hand, encounter the transparent obstacle and bang on it or give up, either in slumber, indifference or tears.

Where Freud went wrong, the authors contend, was in interpreting the sexuality of children with grown-up eyes.

They have organized a group choir and Sunday school, and publish a magazine called The Tennyson Chronicle (after the poet laureate, who was born in their district).
