About this book

Focusing on what educators need to know about child and adolescent development, the revised third edition of this established text incorporates timely issues and research advances. The book reviews major theories of development and presents cutting-edge knowledge about key areas--language development, intelligence and intellectual diversity, motivation, family and peer relationships, gender role development, and mental health. Factors influencing academic achievement and social–emotional growth are identified, and applications for instruction and intervention highlighted. The text's utility is enhanced by chapter summaries, bolded key terms with definitions, and topic boxes. Instructors requesting a desk copy receive a supplemental test bank with objective test items and essay questions for each chapter.
