A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This text provides a broad overview of the field of human development, introducing major theorists, research, and applications, while connecting development to the students' own lives. Feldman (U. of Massachusetts, Amherst) also illustrates the commonalties and differences of various cultures; incorporates interviews with professionals in various fields who use the findings of development; and discusses ways that individuals can use development information in their own lives. The enclosed CD-ROM features author tip videos, theorist biographies, quizzes, and links to the Internet, including the text's companion website.

Professor Feldman was educated as an undergraduate at Wesleyan University, from which he graduated with High Honors, and received a M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in Madison, where he specialized in social and developmental psychology.

Among his more than 100 books, chapters, and articles, he has edited Development of Nonverbal Behavior in Children (Springer-Verlag), Applications of Nonverbal Behavioral Theory and Research (Erlbaum), and co-edited Fundamentals of Nonverbal Behavior (Cambridge University Press). He is the recipient of grants from the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Institute of the Disabilities and Rehabilitation Research, which have supported his research on the development of nonverbal behavior in children.
