The Handbook of Life-Span Development, Vol. 2: Social and Emotional Development

by Michael E. Lamb (Editor), Alexandra M. Freund

In the past fifty years, scholars of human development have been moving from studying change in humans within sharply defined periods, to seeing many more of these phenomenon as more profitably studied over time and in relation to other processes. "The Handbook of Life-Span Development, Volume 2: Social and Emotional Development" presents the study of human development conducted by the best scholars in the 21st century. Social workers, counselors and public health workers will receive coverage of the social and emotional aspects of human change across the lifespan.
