Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
An Introduction to Child Development has established itself as the most popular and useful text available on child development.
In a comprehensive coverage of the subject, the book explores all areas of child development, from the theories of Piaget and Freud to a discussion of the nature of intelligence and the effects of the media on aggression in children.
This book features:
• background readings illustrating key points
• examination style questions
• summary boxes
• end of topic reviews
• marginal comments, questions and activities
• a user-friendly, no nonsense approach
An Introduction to Child Development is widely used by students of GCSE Psychology, and as an introductory text to child development, nursery nursing, and some BTEC and vocational A level courses. It is also valuable to people working with children and interested parents.
