Review:
"I already use Shaffer's text, and plan to continue. I often have students tell me that they plan to keep the book as a reference for when they have children!"
"I have use Shaffer's text in my courses in developmental psychology for eight years . . . the new edition builds on the earlier ones, maintaining the high level of writing and the extensive reliance on research that are continuing strengths of Shaffer's text. New material has been incorporated effectively . . ."
