{"product_id":"9780446563321","title":"NurtureShock: New Thinking about Children","description":"In a world of modern, involved, caring parents, why are so many kids aggressive and cruel?  Where is intelligence hidden in the brain, and why does that matter?  Why do cross-racial friendships decrease in schools that are more integrated?  If 98% of kids think lying is morally wrong, then why do 98% of kids lie?  What's the single most important thing that helps infants learn language?\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eNurtureShock\u003c\/em\u003e is a groundbreaking collaboration between award-winning science journalists Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman.  They argue that when it comes to children, we've mistaken good intentions for good ideas.  With impeccable storytelling and razor-sharp analysis, they demonstrate that many of modern society's strategies for nurturing children are in fact backfiring--because key twists in the science have been overlooked.\u003cbr\u003e  Nothing like a parenting manual, the authors' work is an insightful exploration of themes and issues that transcend children's (and adults') lives.","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47110801850608,"sku":"9780446563321","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780446563321_p0.jpg?v=1763703082","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780446563321","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
