USER REVIEWS
"Well-written and unique among child development books.
Bee & Roberts do it again by updating this text with information (i.e. the Theories of the Mind section) that you won't find in many other competitors.
Rosiland Childworth's CHILD DEVELOPMENT and Jeffrey Trawick-Smith's EARLY CHILD DEVELOPMENT are excellent texts if you can't get this one...but this one does a more thorough job of injecting many little details and nuances that stem straight from the primary literary sources of many of the theories.
Great!"

"Please be aware that despite the editorial review describing "mydevelopmentlab," a multimedia program that is meant to accompany this textbook, the edition offered here does not come either with the CD-ROM version of the program or with access to the online version. My rating of 1 star has nothing to do with the content of the textbook, only with the misleading nature of the editorial review."

"Now in its 10th edition, this book (in order to stay in print so long) does what many other textbook series fail to do: change as the discipline changes.
Child Development (along with early childhood education) continues to accelerate in advances with each passing year...and Brisbane's book stays right with it.
As always, their sections and chapters on parenting rival the very best sources(Ellen Galinksy, Jane Brooks, E.H. Berger, Janet Gonzalez-Mena, Kevin Swick, Chandler & Nita Barbour, and Donna Couchenour)."
