This volume explores the major methodological and conceptual approaches to the study of human development with the aim of integrating these heterogeneous methods. Each contributor either summarizes a major methodological perspective within development psychology - for example, developmental mechanisms, developmental differences that vary between individuals and developmental changes that are shared by most people - or provides a commentary on the preceding contributor's summary.
