Developmental Psychology and You

This book provides an excellent introduction to developmental psychology. There is coverage from infancy to old age. The style is engaging with prominence given to practical and applied topics. David Messer, South Bank University

"Given the extensive nature of the chosen topic - no less than the whole of developmental psychology - it is a testament to keen selective eyes and authorial skills that many of the essential features of the subject are conveyed in a readable and easily accessible style ... it succeeded in one of its chief aims, to whet the reader s appetite for the discipline, sharpening as it did my own critical inclinations!" Tom Billington, University of Sheffield, British Journal of Educational Psychology, December 2003
