Description

This text serves as a mid-level chronological introduction to developmental psychology covering prenatal development through to death. The book features a broad coverage of issues and a current and diverse research base. There is an emphasis on cultural and gender issues that introduce the student to the diversity of human behaviour across the lifespan and a focus on critical thinking to help students understand complex issues. This edition includes a strong pedagogy, many applied examples and a general emphasis on successful ageing. There are new essays at the end of each chapter providing practical information on health issues. - from Amzon
