Lifespan Development: A Topical Approach helps you see the big picture of development across the entire lifespan. Author Robert Feldman employs a topical approach that makes it easy to understand the scope of development within particular areas (such as social or personality development) across the full lifespan.

The 5th Edition offers coverage of relevant contemporary topics, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic across all spheres of development. Updated chapter-opening prologues tie issues such as gender identity and homeschooling to the topics being discussed in the chapter. And updated From Research to Practice features explain how developmental research can be applied to problems such as the effects of screen time on children and palliative care.
