Description
This volume provides the reader with contemporary material within different developmental phases. The first three sections cover infancy, early childhood and middle childhood. Each section covers a representative array of topics in core areas such as learning, cognition, and social and emotional development, and chapters within each section have been selected to be salient to that particular age group. A fourth section covers important cross-cutting themes. Chapters within this section cover topics such as the effects of poverty on development, parenting, and gender issues. A final section reviews new cutting-edge research on topics such as racial socialization and child rearing from a cross-cultural perspective.
