Incorporating the latest Australian, British and American research this is an introduction to contemporary theory and issues in child and adolescent development. Illustrated and with a clear design, this text is readable for students in several disciplines. Modelled on a highly successful first edition published in 1993, the text has been totally reconceptualised. A more thematic linking of materials in the text will allow both students and teachers to follow development either chronologically or thematically. Also, a life cycle approach to topics as they arise will be a useful addition for students. The text has an array of useful features, including definitions in the margins, a glossary, discussion questions and activities. Each book will come with a CD-ROM containing multiple choice questions, a child observation manual, a student guide to research design and techniques, and worksheets. A website created by the author with extension material will be made available.
