Desenvolvimento Humano

Os seres humanos continuam crescendo e desenvolvendo-se depois de chegarem à idade da maturidade, e com um bom livro-texto isso não deve ser diferente. Com esta oitava edição, praticamente todo o livro foi refeito - projeto gráfico, conteúdo e materiais pedagógicos. Ao mesmo tempo, procuramos manter as qualidades envolventes de tom, estilo e conteúdo que contribuíram para a popularidade adquirida por este livro ao longo dos anos.

The 11th edition of this classic best-seller retains the extensive and integrated cross-cultural and multicultural coverage, the proven Guidepost-Checkpoint learning system, and the balance between research and real-life applications that have made this text a long time favorite of students and faculty. In the warmly-written and engaging style that is their hallmark, Papalia, Olds, and Feldman once again paint an engaging chronological portrayal of development through the lifespan. This new edition features enhanced treatment of brain development and evolutionary psychology research as well as new Research in Action features highlighting interesting and timely topics.

This chronologically organized text introduces a new pedagogical learning system. With its combination of research coverage with applications and real-life examples, the text includes cross-cultural topics and issues facing the disabled, in addition to coverage of health issues and applications.
