Synopsis
For courses in Lifespan Development
A modular, manageable, meaningful survey of the life span
RevelTM Discovering the Life Span provides a broad overview of a human life, from the moment of conception through death. Utilizing a flexible, modular organization, author Robert Feldman covers the life span chronologically and focuses on physical, cognitive, and social and personality development within each stage of life.
