Inhaltsangabe

This volume begins with a detailed explication of the genetic base of development, and then proceeds to the pre-natal period, including examination of behaviour before birth and the importance of the fetal environment. It continues to describe the role of the caregiver, and the stages of child growth: the first six months, the rest of the first year (including the roots of personality), toddlerhood, pre-school period, the grade school years, puberty and adolescence. The precursors of normal or abnormal development are detailed for each stage of growth.
