ABSTRACT

What I want to show you is an immature film, * partly meaning that it is about immature humans, and partly that the film itself is immature, because the maturation of what we call ethograms, meaning inventories of behaviour patterns, is incomplete, and this sort of endeavour is doomed never to attain complete accomplishment. We will see a number of behaviour patterns of prematures, newborns and infants up to about one year of age.
