2.0 out of 5 stars Meh, March 6, 2009
This review is from: The Developing Child, 11th Edition (Hardcover)
Not a bad book, per se, but it was used in a graduate class. This book would be much better suited for high school kids.

1.0 out of 5 stars NO ACCESS to mydevelopmentlab.com, June 26, 2006
By 
A. P. (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Developing Child, 11th Edition (Hardcover)
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.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's Getting Better...Even after 11 Editions., September 23, 2006
By 
Reginald Williams (Orangeburg, SC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Developing Child, 11th Edition (Hardcover)
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!
