      abstract = {"Because we engage with the world and each other through  our bodies and bodily movements, being able to represent  one's own and others' bodies is fundamental to human  perception, cognition and behaviour. This edited book  brings together, for the first time, developmental  perspectives on the growth of body knowledge in infancy and  early childhood and how it intersects with other aspects of  perception and cognition. The book is organised into three  sections addressing the bodily self, the bodies of others  and integrating self and other. Topics include perception  and representation of the human form, infant imitation,  understanding biological motion, self-representation,  intention understanding, action production and perception  and children's human figure drawings. Each section includes  chapters from leading international scholars drawn together  by an expert commentary that highlights open questions and  directions for future research"--},
