About the Text:A best-selling text unparalleled in its approach to teaching human development, Berk’s Development Through the Lifespan is relied upon in classrooms worldwide for its clear, engaging writing style, exceptional cross-cultural focus, rich examples, and long-standing commitment to presenting the most up-to-date scholarship while also offering students research-based, practical applications that they can relate to their personal and professional lives.
Laura Berk, renowned professor and researcher, has revised the text with new pedagogy, a heightened emphasis on the interplay between biology and environment, and an enhanced focus on many social policy issues, while emphasizing the lifespan perspective throughout. The latest theories and findings in the field are made accessible to students in a manageable and relevant way. Berk’s signature storytelling style invites students to actively learn beside the text’s “characters.” Students are provided with an especially clear and coherent understanding of the sequence and underlying processes of human development, emphasizing the interrelatedness of all domains—physical, cognitive, emotional, social—throughout the text narrative and in special features.
Berk also helps students connect their learning to their personal and professional areas of interest. Her voice comes through when speaking directly about issues students will face in their future pursuits as parents, educators, health care providers, social workers, and researchers. As members of a global and diverse human community, students are called to intelligently approach the responsibility of understanding and responding to the needs and concerns of both young and old.
While carefully considering the complexities of human development, Berk presents classic and emerging theories in an especially clear, engaging writing style, with a multitude of research-based, real-world, and cross-cultural examples. Strengthening the connections among developmental domains and of theory and research with applications, this edition's extensive revision brings forth the most recent scholarship, representing the changing field of human development.

Development Through The Lifespan : Development Through the Lifespan (with MyDevelopmentLab with E-Book Student Access Code Card) (5th Edition) Reviews
| 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful  Development Across the Lifespan, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Development Through the Lifespan (with MyDevelopmentLab with E-Book Student Access Code Card) (5th Edition) (Hardcover) I was not very happy with my purchase. This is because I did not recieve everything that I was under the impression of purchasing. When the title of your purchase says "Develpment Across the Lifespan (With MyDevelopmentLab with E-Book student access code card", that is what I expect to get, and I needed all of that for my class. I only recieved the book and no access code, therefore was not able to access the online material. I was also not happy with the fact that I had no one to contact about this problem, and had no choice but to keep the book. Overall, this was a very disappointing purchase. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful  Great textbook, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Development Through the Lifespan (5th Edition) (Hardcover) This is one of the best textbooks that I have read.
