Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

For undergraduate courses in Child Development taught Chronologically. Boyd/Bee provides students the most support for learning and success. The Growing Child emphasizes how the three domains of development - physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional - interact with each other and with the environment to affect developmental outcomes. Featuring an innovative student-focused format, it provides the self-assessment tools necessary to keep students engaged in active learning from start to finish, as well as the most support to help students organize, understand, and apply the material.
