Reviews

“It is a well-written text that is structured similarly to most developmental psychology texts. The level of difficulty is suitable for undergraduates. It is an excellent textbook.”

“The writing is so simple and straightforward that students would not get confused. It is clear that the authors were considerate about how to present the material to students. The inclusion of the latest research from cognitive neuroscience is another positive aspect. The wealth of resources available to instructors and students would allow me to recommend this textbook to a colleague who is teaching both childhood and adolescence.”

“This is a remarkable textbook that takes a topical rather than a chronological approach to child and adolescent development. This topical approach makes it much more helpful in fitting it into a single semester, with the objective of covering one topic each week throughout the semester. The coverage is thorough and provides sufficient depth that students can understand the core concepts for the course. Also, the built-in Concept Checks throughout the ebook help students determine whether or not they have mastered core concepts from one section before they move onto the next section of the material.”
