Dear xmca-ers-
I feel very guilty for not replying to replies to my postings (especially I
feel guilty for not replying to Carol's postings, sorry Carol). I'm coming
out of my sabbatical and having PSSD (Post-Sabbatical Stress Disorder :-)
I'm starting my classes and I'm overwhelmed because of that....
Anyway, I scanned a few pages from a very good book on Vygotsky by Jaan
Valsiner and Renee van der Veer (see attached). I hope this fragment
addresses Mike's questions. The discussion on this topic can be fascinating
but I do not have time now... (please have it without me and I'll try to
follow it)...
Take care and please do not be mad at me,
Eugene
PS I'm afraid even ask what you think.... :-(
