Children - Softcover
Expert consultants closely reviewed the fifth edition of Children to guarantee current and accurate information in every chapter. Santrock chronologically covers prenatal through adolescent development and uses five major themes throughout the text: health and well-being; families and parenting; education; culture and ethnicity; and gender. Many real-life examples illustrate concepts.
