Description: The question of how and when children lie has bedeviled child psychologists, educators, and legal professionals for years. This book, previously unavailable to American readers, describes a seminal study by Clara and William Stern, first published in Germany in 1909, documenting their own children's abilities to recollect, recount, testify, and distinguish truth from falsehood.
