Abstract
Many people who have come into contact with the thought of Joseph McVicker Hunt have done so through the work that was launched by the publication of Intelligence and Experience in 1961. This was a landmark book, both as a scholarly synthesis and as a seminal contribution regarding cognition, thought, and the circumstances of development. Not only was it one of the major influences leading to the serious rebirth of interest in infancy as a crucial period in development, but it also served, along with John Flavell’s book, which appeared in 1963, to reintroduce the theorizing of Jean Piaget in North America. Finally, it was that rarest of all accomplishments: a highly scholarly and theoretical treatise that had a very large impact on application.
