Child Development: Concepts and Theories takes a step back to focus just on the key concepts of child development that all students must learn. With this text, their first encounters with theories and their applications will mean that they can move on with a firm foundation in child development. Central to this, is understanding how these theories or concepts are applied in the real world and how psychologists engage with them in research. This text gives clear and detailed examples to bring the subject to life.
