Like children themselves, development is dynamic. In the chronologically organized Child and Adolescent Development in Context, award-winning author Tara L. Kuther brings developmental research to life by framing it within real-world contexts, illustrating how internal factors interact with a wide range of social, environmental, and cultural influences. Through highly relatable examples and vivid cross-cultural stories, Dr. Kuther engages students while emphasizing three core themes: the centrality of context, the importance of research, and the practical value of developmental science. Students will come away with a deeper understanding of these themes and the ability to apply them to their own lives and future careers. The new Second Edition features an expanded exploration of intersectional influences, a new section on intersectionality in Chapter 1, and the addition of Developmental Cascades, a brand-new feature that illustrates how changes in one domain can influence others.
