"Our Children: Their Physical and Mental Development" is a pioneering work on child development, written by Augustus K. Gardner and first published in 1876. Gardner was an American physician who specialized in the care of children, and his book was one of the first to apply scientific principles to the study of child development. The book covers a wide range of topics, including infant care, nutrition, exercise, and the development of intelligence and character. Gardner's insights and recommendations were based on careful observation and extensive research, and his work had a profound impact on the understanding and care of children during the Victorian era. Despite being over a century old, "Our Children" remains a valuable resource for parents, educators, and researchers interested in the physical and mental development of children.
