Child Development in Context: Voices and Perspectives

by David N. Sattler, Virginia Shabatay, Geoffrey P. Kramer

Corresponding to the organization of most child development textbooks, each chapter of this text contains 5?6 personal narratives and each narrative covers a different concept, issue, or topic within a given age period. Students see theory and research come alive through dynamic and insightful first-person accounts about timely issues; become engaged in critical thinking about gender, multi-cultural, ethical, theoretical, and research issues; and gain exposure to complex life events and ethical dilemmas.
