Thought and Language — Lev S. Vygotsky

Vygotsky examines how thought and language develop through childhood.

He argues that speech begins in social interaction and can become internalized verbal thought.

The book investigates the changing relationship between word meaning and consciousness.

It connects concept formation with children’s everyday experience and school instruction.

Language provides a central route into his account of higher mental functions.
