Development Through the Lifespan 7th edition by Laura E. Berk examines human development from conception through late adulthood, showing how biological, cognitive, emotional, and social changes interact across each stage of life. The book follows development chronologically and uses research findings, cross cultural examples, and real life applications to connect developmental theory with the experiences of infants, children, adolescents, adults, and older adults.
The 7th edition covers genetic and environmental foundations of development, prenatal development, birth, infancy, physical growth, motor development, perception, cognition, language, intelligence, emotional development, attachment, self concept, personality, moral development, peer relationships, family life, schooling, adolescence, adulthood, aging, retirement, and death and dying. It also examines the influence of culture, socioeconomic conditions, relationships, and changing social environments on development across the lifespan.
This book is especially useful for Psychology Students, Human Development Students, Nursing Students, Education Students, Social Work Students, Counseling Students, Early Childhood Education Students, Family Studies Students, and students taking lifespan development or developmental psychology courses. It can support coursework that requires students to compare developmental stages, apply major theories, interpret research, and understand age related changes in behavior and functioning.
Psychology, nursing, education, counseling, social work, and human development students can use this edition to trace developmental change from prenatal life through old age and connect physical, cognitive, emotional, and social processes across different stages.
