Synopsis
This chronologically organized introduction to child development covers the period from conception through to late adolescence. Arguing that children play an active role in their own development, the authors focus especially upon new data and current theories. The book is designed to explain the basic concepts without the use of unnecessary jargon. For this third edition the text has been revised to bring it into line with the current theories and practices. New material and information is provided on such varied topics as cultural diversity, AIDS, parent-child and sibling interactions, teenage pregnancy, and homeless youth.

From the Publisher
This chronologically organized introduction to child development covers the period from conception through late adolescence. The viewpoint is transactional--children are seen as playing an active role in their own development, not as passive recipients of whatever the environment happens to deal out. Harris and Liebert combine a lively, "journalistic" style of writing with a scholarly approach to data and theory, focusing especially on new data and current theories.
