Childhood and Adolescence
Description:... This practical book uses an Eriksonian emphasis as a springboard into the universe of research and theory that makes up the study of child development. Every chapter examines the intricate way in which the lives of developing children are interwoven with the influence of adults and larger social institutions. And, throughout the book, the authors' blend of storytelling, detail, research studies, examples, and explanations bring the study of child development to life! In addition, as you work through the book's "Notebook Page" exercises, you will have an opportunity to think about issues of development from a personal viewpoint and to write about the material in relation to your own beliefs, past experiences, and current observations.
