Introduction to Child Development - Thryft
Introduction to Child Development - Thryft

Discover child development and understand growth.

"An Introduction to Child Development" is a comprehensive guide that covers everything from theories of Piaget and Freud to the nature of intelligence and media effects on aggression in children. It is an ideal read for students of GCSE Psychology, nursery nursing, and some BTEC and vocational A level courses, as well as for people working with children and interested parents. The book is written in a user-friendly, no-nonsense approach, featuring background readings, examination-style questions, summary boxes, end-of-topic reviews, and marginal comments, questions, and activities.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
