Synopsis: |
Understandable to both undergraduate and graduate students without sacrificing depth or intellectual honesty, David F. Bjorklund's dynamic book captures the excitement and essence of cognitive development. The author summarizes theory and research, offering breadth of coverage and an empirical presepctive.

Bjorklund emphasizes the continuous interaction between a child's biological constitution (including genetics) and his or her social environment. Rather than taking a selective approach, Bjorklund extensively summarizes theory and research, offering breadth of coverage and an empirical perspective. |
