One of the most influential books about children ever published, NurtureShock offers a revolutionary new perspective on children that upends a library's worth of conventional wisdom. With impeccable storytelling and razor-sharp analysis, the authors demonstrate that many of modern society's strategies for nurturing children are in fact backfiring--because key twists in the science have been overlooked. Nothing like a parenting manual, NurtureShock gets to the core of how we grow, learn and live.
Released in hardcover in September 2009, NurtureShock remained on the New York Times best seller list for three months, and was one of Amazon's best selling books for 2009. The book has become a worldwide phenomenon with editions published around the world - in fifteen languages, to date.
In addition to Bronson and Merryman's writings on praise -- first made famous in New York magazine -- there are nine more equally groundbreaking chapters. Among the topics covered:
Why the most brutal person in a child's life is often a sibling, and how a single aspect of their preschool-aged play can determine their relationship as adults.
When is it too soon - or too late - to teach a child about race? Children in diverse schools are less likely to have a cross-racial friendship, not more - so is school diversity backfiring?
Millions of families are fighting to get their kids into private schools and advanced programs as early as possible. But schools are missing the best kids, 73% of the time - the new neuroscience explains why.
Why are kids - even those from the best of homes - still aggressive and cruel? The answer is found in a rethinking of parental conflict, discipline, television's unexpected influence, and social dominance.
Parents are desperate to jump-start infants' language skills. Recently, scientists have discovered a series of natural techniques that are astonishing in their efficacy - it's not baby videos, sign language, or even the richness of language exposure. It's nothing you've heard before.

我非常喜欢这本书的风格,但是这本书的硬伤也很明显。它的优点是简明、通俗、主题突出、论据权威。但问题在于书中的教养关键词及案例的选择过于美国化,在中国(以及其他国家)的适用性偏低了。如平等(种族歧视方面的),在多元化的美国可能是个比较大的问题,但是中国基本没...
评分第1章 表扬危机四伏,可以摧毁孩子的自信 ☆ 大人给孩子贴上“聪明”的标签并没有让他们表现得更好。实际上,这可能是孩子表现不佳的罪魁祸首。 ☆ 表扬孩子努力用功,会给孩子一个可以自我掌控的感觉。夸奖孩子聪明,就等于告诉他们成功不在自己的掌握之中。 ☆ 有效的表扬...
评分因为有了个儿子,不得不看点育儿方面的书籍,这也算其中一本。但这本书还不同于一般操作性的育儿书籍,学术性远强于操作性。涉及的学术领域主要是神经及认知科学与儿童心理学,所以除对育儿有些原则性的指导之外,也算是我这一两年来在神经科学方面阅读的延续。 此书一面世立马...
评分本书是经典再版,英文名为:《NurtureShock:New Thinking About》,前年(2011年)万卷出版社出版时名为《教养大震憾》。因为一直对教育很感兴趣,对家庭教育亦很重视,因此闲时也看过不少育儿书,以观察侄儿侄女们的成长乐趣之一。初读布朗森的这本《关键教养报告》真的被其...
