New edition of a textbook covering physical and cognitive development, personality and social development, and crises and problems. New and revised topics include health and aging, memory and learning, intelligence, creativity and wisdom, stress and coping, life course development and control.
For courses in Adult Development and/or Aging, this text separates fact from fiction by contrasting existing myths with the most current empirical data. With a topical approach and a solid research base, written in a style accessible for undergraduates, the text is founded on the authors' expertise in psychology and gerontology. By highlighting important biological, sociological and medical contributions as well, this text gives an interdisciplinary view of this emergent field.
