by Kelvin L. Seifert, Michele Hoffnung, Robert J. Hoffnung

This chronologically organized text presents development from a growth perspective, focusing on continuities and change throughout life. By illustrating the connections and relationships among all stages, Lifespan allows students to discover that human development is a lifelong process. The Second Edition offers an even stronger emphasis on the lifespan approach to development, as exemplified by four Lifelong Growth, Continuity and Change, Changing Meanings and Changing Vantage Points, and Developmental Diversity.
