Three general issues are brought out in the introduction, though the book is not organized in this way. One issue concerns the age at which signs of moral behavior appear, and the circumstances that promote or retard its display. The reports discuss the influence of parents, siblings, and certain apparently innate behaviors in the two- to three-year-old child. A second issue is the distinction between conventional morality and principled morality. Cross-cultural research in India and in Kenya suggested such a distinction may be unique to cultures with a democratic perspective. The final issue concerns the question of whether a single perspective of morality--based on rationally derived principles of justice as in Lawrence Kohlberg's studies--is sufficient to account for moral development. Unfortunately, the quality of the writing differs markedly from essay to essay, and most are clearly not intended for an audience of undergraduates. Useful for specialists, graduate students, and some advanced undergrads. -K. L. Hartlep, California State University, Bakersfield
