Development Through the Lifespan (6th Edition)
What Reviewers Are Saying  Again, you have written one of the best textbooks I have ever reviewed.  You do a great job of using research-based material, provide clear statements describing complicated issues, provide useful summaries, and write in a way that enhances student interest and learning.  In fact, I would suggest that faculty using your text end up learning even more than the students who read the book.Dale Lund, California State University, San Bernardino The writing style is extremely fluid, easy to read, and engaging.Cheryl Anagnopoulos, Black Hills State University Diversity and multicultural coverage is a REAL strength of the text.Aurora Sherman,(Oregon State University The research is absolutely current, relevant, and well-integrated throughout the text.Lori Bica, University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire I think students need stories to serve as frameworks for thinking about developmental concepts, and this text provides that.Mary Ann Erickson, Ithaca College Laura Berk has included more diversity content (in both regular text and various boxes) than in any other comparable text.
