TextPublication details: Iowa: Brown and Benchmark, 1996 Edition: 7th EditionDescription: xxxi, 687 pages : Color illustrations ; 28 cmISBN: 0697235556; 9780697235558Subject(s): Child DevelopmentOther classification: RJ131 JOH 1996 Summary: This book is the seventh edition of Child Development.
The seven editions span two decades, and the journey through childhood, if anything, continues to
grow in fascination for me. This is an exciting time to study and write about children's development. Scholars around the world are making new discoveries and developing new insights about virtually every domain of child development at a much faster pace than in previous decades. The field of child development is also maturing to the point at which the knowledge that is being gained can be applied to children's lives to improve their adaptation, health, and well-being.
The seventh edition of Child Development continues to follow a topical format. The core knowledge of the field has been retained, but, as in the sixth edition, I carefully added to, subtracted from, integrated, and simplified the material for this seventh edition of the book. The significant changes involve updating the research knowledge base that is the foundation of what we know about children's development and expanding the applications of what we know about child development to the real lives of children.
