简介:In The Lifespan, Guy R. Lefrancois presents a vivid, exceptionally clear, often fascinating overview of human development. Balancing solid contemporary research with engaging illustrations and examples, Lefrancois chronicles the physical, social, and cognitive growth and change that take place during each of the lifespan periods: infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age. As he describes the patterns and contexts of change, Lefrancois emphasizes the uniquely individual influences of heredity, culture, and environment of lifespan development.
