SynopsisExceptionally well-loved by instructors and students who've used it, Janet Belsky's text offers a fresh, remarkably brief way to understand the experience of human development throughout the lifespan. It gives students an immediate and practical grounding in the field's basic concepts, guiding them from underlying research to practical applications, in a highly conversational style, with pedagogy that reinforces learning, and with examples drawn from an extraordinarily broad range of cultures throughout the world. And with its dedicated version of Worth's online course space, LaunchPad, this edition becomes a fully integrated print/interactive resource.
