Description
This accessible and engaging text, written by well-known and respected child development researchers and teachers, emphasizes applying research to practice. Discovering Child Development focuses on the many ways in which children are affected by their environments. The authors illustrate the ways in which children are unique and the impact that people, contexts, and experiences have on how they develop. Martin and Fabes also encourage students to think critically about research and issues in child development and see how these relate to real-life experiences.
