In Thinking and Speech, LSV also refers to: "The child's conception of the world", it's sequel "La causalite physique chez l'enfant", and "The psychology of the child and the teaching of history". In his "Play" lectures in Leningrad LSV refers to Piaget's book "Le jugement morale chez l'enfant". When Vygotsky referred somewhat disparagingly to the questions "with which Piaget fills his books", it was because he'd waded through quite a few of them.

But long and intensely search prefaces were Vygotsky's style; a lot of his prefaces (collected in Volume Three of the Collected Works) are like that. LSV has something to say about just about everybody, and it's never simple or simply laudatory.

On the other side, Leontiev claims that Piaget eventually agreed with all of Vygotsky's criticisms so Piaget's early work is basically invalid. But I think anybody who reads, say, "Play, Imitation, and Dreams" will have to agree that the differences between the two grew greater and greater. And if you read Kohlberg, or Elkind, or even Subbotsky, you have to admit that they continue to grow today even after both men's bones are cold.
