Summary:

Abstract: Child development became a field of intense study, beginning about 1960. The text focuses on the child as a person. It is aimed at students--in formal programs and those working on their own--of child development. Among the various aspects of the field discussed are: the various theories and research methods concerned with child development; environment and genetics; and early influences on development. Sections are devoted to infants, toddlers, preschoolers, "middle-years" children, and adolescents. A very brief discussion of post-adolescence is also included.
