From the Publisher
Innovative Pedagogical Learning System new to this edition helps students build upon their knowledge as they move through each chapter and test their mastery of the text content. Components include:
Guideposts are learning objectives stated as broad overview questions to help students begin the chapter thinking about specific ideas and issues. Guideposts are repeated in the chapter margins next to the corresponding text discussion and again at the end of the chapter for student review.
Checkpoints are questions that appear periodically within the text to help students check their mastery of the material.
What do you think? give students the opportunity to answer questions geared to help them personalize the important and relevant topics and issues in each chapter.
Link-ups To Look For open each Part in the text and provide examples of connections between domains in each period of life.
Key Terms are defined in the margins for each student review.
Independent Study appear at the end of each chapter and give students ideas for conducting basic psychological research and structured application of chapter theory.
Text Design has been completely replaced with an open, colorful, one-column design.
Important Content Changes include the devision of chapter 1 into two separate chapters, the first introduces the history of the field and context, while the second focuses on research methods and theories.
Expanded and Improved cross cultural and multicultural coverage

A personal, dynamic writing style appeals to students of all ages and backgrounds. Complex issues and topics in human development are clearly explained and illustrated throughout the text.
An even handed treatment of all stages of the life-span, including strong coverage of adult development and aging, results in a balanced textbook without bias.
