Developmental Psychology | 9th Edition

About This Product

This popular, topically organized, and thoroughly updated child and adolescent development text presents students with the best theories, research, and practical advice that developmentalists have to offer today. Authors David R. Shaffer and Katherine Kipp provide students with a current and comprehensive overview of child and adolescent development, written in clear, concise language that talks "to" students rather than "at" them. The authors also focus on applications that show students how theories and research apply to real-life settings. As a result, students gain an understanding of developmental principles that will help them in their roles as parents, teachers, nurses, day-care workers, pediatricians, psychologists, or in any other capacity by which they may one day influence the lives of developing persons.
