Description
This second edition of Child Psychology reflects the increasingly sophisticated and varied research methods used to examine the highly complex interactions contributing to children's cognitive, emotional, and social development.
Those chapters that appeared in the previous edition have been thoroughly updated and new chapters by outstanding researchers have been introduced. In addition, there is an entirely new section on adolescence and thorough coverage of salient ecological influences, which make this second edition a truly comprehensive resource on the important issues in child psychology.

Reviews / Votes
'What a delight! Child Psychology 2nd edition, preserves the four cornerstone themes of its first edition (exploring the nature of change, illustrating the interconnectedness of people and environments, identifying processes affecting life-course transitions, and emphasizing the need for diverse methodological approaches), while simultaneously expanding the range of contemporary issues addressed. Seasoned developmental scientists and their students will be provoked and challenged by the issues raised throughout the volume, and will gain a deeper appreciation for the causal, yet dynamic, processes that regulate human behavior over the life course.' - Hiram E. Fitzgerald, Michigan State University, USAMore details
