内容説明・目次
内容説明
By combining topical and chronological approaches, this text presents life-span development as a motion picture rather than a series of individual snapshots. With its real-life examples, clear and straightforward writing style, apt use of examples and analogies, and a focus on the relevance of the material to students' lives, Sigelman aims to make even complex topics accessible to students.
