Synopsis

Reflecting the need for a current, culturally relevant text on human development, Drewery and Bird's "Human Development in Aotearoa: a Journey Through Life, 2/e", includes 25 case studies written by a team of contributors from around New Zealand. In addition to strong coverage of local policy issues it highlights unique local programmes for education and childhood protection. Drewery and Bird have presented the coverage of life span development in a chronological order to provide a text that effectively combines a solid conceptual foundation with an emphasis on relevant, interesting, local examples.
