Lifespan Development provides an essential balance among theory, research, and practical application while making the study of human development relevant for those in the various fields in which this information is needed, including the social and health sciences, education, and many others. Current thinking and recent research are presented in a personal and direct way so that the book is more like a conversation than a traditional text, without sacrificing either theoretical clarity or rigour of research. To convey this richness, Lifespan Development includes teaching and learning features to help you manage and sort out all this information in an engaging and meaningful manner.
