Description
"Julie Hicks Patrick, Bert Hayslip, and Lisa Hollis-Sawyer's Adult Development and Aging: Growth, Challenges, and Longevity documents recent advances in the science of aging and summarizes the complexity of the field from multiple perspectives. The principles of lifespan development guide the text to show the multiple directionality of changes in early, middle and late adulthood. A multidisciplinary focus allows learners to bridge career, personal, and real world connections that matter. An appreciation for modern and historical research helps students to understand the trajectory of this relatively new scientific field's place in a global context. Structured to follow a framework that promotes scientific literacy, the book supports learners as they evaluate and retain new information"--
