Child Development: A Cultural Approach helps you understand how culture impacts development, and why it matters. The text teaches you how to think culturally about human development throughout our diverse, increasingly globalized world. Author Jeffrey Jensen Arnett and new co-author Lene Arnett Jensen weave an engaging chronological narrative that traces development from birth through emerging adulthood, integrating current research and cross-cultural examples from around the globe throughout.
For the 3rd Edition, the authors utilize an expanded chapter organization and a fresh approach, characterized by additional cross-cultural perspectives, to better highlight the cultural aspects of development.
