"All academic libraries, even those in two-year colleges, should add these volumes to their collections." (Choice, February 1998) "The Collected Works in English are particularly valuable because a broad and honest reading of Vygotsky challenges common assumptions about psychology. By building on Vygotsky's more promising insights, psychology might have a better chance of overcoming the divisions it still faces." (American Scientist, May - June 1998)
