Integrating current research findings with foundational, classic theory and research, the second edition presents a comprehensive yet concise introduction to the field, exploring the diverse contexts that shape human development, including gender, race and ethnicity and socioeconomic status,. The text is organized around overviews brought to life in Dr. Kuther’s Chalk Talks, a series of whiteboard-style animations that feature brief, captivating videos.
