“Academic libraries catering for courses in psychology or child development should definitely consider this excellent handbook for acquisition, and should also be considering how much of their older stock on child psychology needs updating.”  (Reference Reviews, 1 October 2014)

A comprehensive and authoritative overview of an expanding field written by leading researchers. Where I knew the topic, I was impressed; where I did not I was informed by clear, well organized text.
Professor David C. Rubin, Duke University
