From conception onwards, the acquisition of new structures and new capabilities is constantly changing the infant into new, different organisms. The way in which new functions are introduced or appear in the organism is “Integration”. To this problem, André‐Thomas has here applied his lively inquiring mind, looking at the motor and visual aspects and the contributions of conditioning and the affection between infant and mother.
