Developmental Psychology and You

by Julia C. Berryman, Pamela K. Smythe, Ann Taylor-Davies

Developmental Psychology and You is a lively and accessible introduction to the psychology of human development. The authors, who all have extensive experience in teaching and research, have selected topics that will appeal to new students of this subject and have presented them in a way that demonstrates their relevance to everyday life. The fully revised second edition includes a new chapter on gender development and gender differences, while the material on adult life and growing older has been expanded. Key concepts are highlighted throughout, and each chapter contains objectives, exercises, self-assessment questions and recommendations for further reading.

This was a recommended book on my book list at uni but it isn't anything special and wasn't very informative. A trawl in the library found many better and more useful publications.
