Following the path from early adulthood to old age, this engrossing introduction offers students an insight into how psychologists have made sense of the significant markers in people's lives. The authors discuss stage theories, and ecological and systemic approaches to show how these ideas illuminate our understanding of lifespan development.

Qty:

From the teenage years to retirement, each phase of life presents different challenges and new experiences.

Examining the patterns of development throughout the lifespan, the authors provide key insights into how we experience the world, and they examine how established theories have been challenged by recent changes to the understanding of human development.

Whatever your level of study, this absorbing introduction will give you a deeper appreciation of the different life phases and how psychological principles aid our understanding of them.
