About this title

Synopsis

This textbook provides a fully up-to-date account of our knowledge of children's social development. It is addressed to students of psychology and other social sciences with no or only limited knowledge of child development, and covers an age up to and including adolescence. The content is organised according to themes, but these themes follow an approximated developmental progression.
