Child Development is widely considered the most accurate and up-to-date topically-organized text in the field. Used by hundreds of thousands of students over eleven editions, its learning goals-driven learning system provides a clear roadmap to student understanding of the content. The fully revised twelfth edition reinforces the highly contemporary tone and focus by featuring hundreds of new citations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book

If you're paying this much, probably some teacher is making you buy the book, and you don't really care how good it is or not... but just in case:

Great book. Well written, interesting concepts. Easy to self-teach out of. Clear and concise, well organized. I'm an engineer, and took this class as my very last elective before I graduated, and the book kept me interested.

I use this book for my Childhood Adolescence for Educators course and I rely on the info from the readings over the input of the teacher! Lol. This is extremely useful information that is easily understood, and as an avid reader of difficult texts within my post-secondary education, I greatly appreciate the easy reading.

This book is super informative. Not only would I recommend it to students in the class but for any to be parent. This is fact, and can help anybody with raising children and knowing A-Z. Had the author as a professor, his lectures are as on point as his books.
