Editorial Reviews for Infants, Children, and Adolescents
|
|
Berk has updated this best-selling chronologically organized child development book by paying close attention to the relationship between theory, research, and applications. With a heightened emphasis on the interplay between biology and environment, and stronger focus on education (both at home and at school) and social policy as critical pieces of the dynamic system in which the child develops, Berk pays meticulous attention to the most recent scholarship in the field. For child psychologists or students of child psychology.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Infants, Children, and Adolescents Comment: Hi,
I love how the book divides the development of human beings by age, physical development, socio-emotional development, and cognitive development. I also love how the important words are highlighted.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Review for Infants, Children, & Adolescents Comment: Good seller, quick delivery, could have put a better description about book on Web
Customer Rating:      Summary: Book that tells a story Comment: I loved the way the author brought in stories of various children. I felt like I got to know the children throughout their stages of development. A great textbook!
Customer Rating:      Summary: This text is useful for single-parents rearing children. Comment: As a Forensic Psychologist I use this text and recommend it to clients to better understand and appreciate the psycho-developmental needs of their children. Of particular interest to most of those parents are the diverse tables which clarify the expected and unique behaviors of children by age group. This provides those parents with a guide book to assist them in child rearing through age 18. That reference material not only facilitates the parent's understanding of the needs of the child, but also better prepares more effective parenting skills and preparation for developmental issues which are significant in custody and visitation (or access) legal questions. Parents have reported developing a feeling of confidence since they are using scientific data in making parenting decisiions. Legal authorities -- judges and attorneys -- have felt more confident in their recommendations, opinions, and decisions which are based upon evidence. -- Swen Helge, Ph.D.
