An introduction to development that emphasizes the importance of family and cultural contexts
Revel(tm) Understanding Human Development presents an overview of development across the lifespan that emphasizes the dynamic interactions among biological, psychological, and sociocultural forces. Authors Wendy Dunn and Grace Craig present people as they are in the context of culture and subculture, helping all students to find themselves mirrored in the course. The 4th Edition has been thoroughly revised to include the latest research, as well as topics of contemporary interest -- such as changing notions of family, the effects of media on children, and recent LGBT issues -- that will draw students into their study of development.
