Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
Now in its second edition, this fundamental undergraduate textbook provides students with everything they need when studying developmental psychology.
Thoroughly revised, this book breaks down key topics into easily accessible concepts and provides students with both an overview of traditional research and theory as well as an insight into the latest research findings and techniques. Taking a chronological approach, the key milestones from birth to adolescence are highlighted and clear links between changes in behaviour and developments in brain activity are made. A new chapter provides a global perspective on development, including findings regarding children’s motor, cognitive, literacy, social and emotional development, as well as the importance of cross-cultural studies and their challenges. Each chapter also highlights both typical and atypical developments, as well as discussing and contrasting the effects of genetic and environmental factors.
This textbook comes with a wealth of carefully updated pedagogical features, designed to help students engage with the material, including:
• Learning objectives for every chapter
• Key term definitions
• Over 100 colour illustrations
• Chapter summaries
• Further reading
• Suggested essay questions.
A Student’s Guide to Developmental Psychology is accompanied by a support material package, featuring a range of helpful supplementary resources including exclusive video clips to illustrate key developmental concepts, multiple-choice questions, flashcards and more.
This book is essential reading for all undergraduate students of developmental psychology. It will also be of interest to those in education, healthcare and other subjects requiring an up-to-date and accessible overview of child development.
