Synopsis

Thorough. Accurate. Reliable. Engaging. These are just a few words used by adopters and reviewers of Child Development. The topically-organized 16th edition continues with Santrock's highly contemporary tone and focus, featuring over 1,000 new citations. The popular Connections theme shows students the different aspects of children's development to help them better understand the concepts. Used by hundreds of thousands of students over fourteen editions, the proven learning goals system provides a clear roadmap to course mastery. The new Guide to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, found in the preface, highlights the many updates the authors have made in these critical areas.
