An important contribution to the Aging literature,
By Robert Elsner (Athens, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beyond Formal Operations: Late Adolescent and Adult Cognitive Development (Hardcover)
This book is for scholarly individuals who wish to gain a deeper understanding of human development beyond adolescence and into old age. Aging is not oly about growing old, losing abilities, and dying. Aging is a developmental process throughout which we grow and change. Commons, Richards, and Armon do a fabulous job editing the chapters analyzing the changes that accompany age. Their basic stance is that Piaget's developmental theory does not allow for continuation of the developmental process to a logical conclusion. The contributors to this book are among the most important figures in adult development (Sternberg, Vidal, Gruber, Richards & Commons, Labouvie-Vief, Kohlberg, etc.), making this a must-have reference for the academician or practitioner. Very well written, this book is approachable by anyone with a college education. Highly recommended.
