Purchase options and add-ons

Known for its clear, straightforward writing style, grounding in current research, and well-chosen visuals and examples, Sigelman and Rider's text combines a topical organization at the chapter level and an age/stage organization within each chapter. Each chapter focuses on a domain of development such as physical growth, cognition, or personality and traces developmental trends and influences in that domain from infancy to old age. Each chapter also includes sections on infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. The organization helps you grasp key transformations that occur in each period of the life span. Other staples of the text are its emphasis on theories and their application to different aspects of development and its focus on the interplay of nature and nurture in development. This edition includes new research on biological and sociocultural influences on life-span development and offers new media resources that help you engage more actively with the content.

I'm using this book for a Human Growth and Development course I am currently enrolled in. My final grade will be an 'A' and the book is instrumental in helping me achieve my goal.

Purchased brand new, arrived well packaged and in immaculate condition. This book was also half the cost at SNHU so I'm extremely happy about that part as well. Overall, great purchase!

Great textbook

I love this textbook (can’t believe I’m say that). It’s the only one I’ve ever kept after the class was done. It’s so informative and easy to read.

Katherine Rigdon

Great quality, only thing is the glue from the pages to the spine is loose, but that’s no big deal.

Great book for it to be bought used.

Used book in excellent condition

Reviewed in the United States on 11 February 2021

Verified Purchase

Book received in perfect condition. Taking online course which recommends a subscription to Mindtap. I think brand new books come with an access code. (Pretty sure) I ended up purchasing this book and paying $120 for a Cenage 4 month subscription, which comes with access to the ebook of this book. Mindtap is extremely helpful with studying the material in the book in an engaging way. If you are taking a course virtually that requires this book just go with a Cenage unlimited subscription instead.
