Description

A text useful in building a bridge from theory and research to children's everyday lives. Coverage encompasses major theories of development, the development process, the impact of culture, and interrelations of theory, research, and applications. Learning features include color photos and diagrams, brief reviews, discussion questions, boxes on social issues, and chapter summaries. This third edition offers greater inclusion of interdisciplinary research, emphasizes the interconnected roles of biology and environment, and discusses recent theories explaining variability in development.
