Adult Development and Aging - Softcover
Broad-based and comprehensive, the Second Edition uses a new integrative theme (the biopsychosocial approach) that blends theories with research and application. This approach provides students with the basics, enabling them to become educated and critical consumers of gerontological information. The clear writing style and currency that helped the First Edition attain bestseller status continue to be the hallmarks of this edition.
