Synopsis
This revision of Cavanaugh's text offers comprehensive treatment of adult development and ageing coupled with a wide array of in-text study aids designed to help students master the material. A focus on science and the experimental method, liberal use of examples and applications, and authoritative handling of diversity issues should make the third edition a useful teaching and learning tool.
