5.0 out of 5 stars Great textbook
This is one of the best textbooks that I have read. It is clear and easy to understand. There are lots of short stories, pictures, diagrams, ect. It is fun to read and it's a textbook. The book does a great job of making the definitions easy to find and understand.

2.0 out of 5 stars Development Across the Lifespan
I was not very happy with my purchase. This is because I did not recieve everything that I was under the impression of purchasing. When the title of your purchase says "Develpment Across the Lifespan (With MyDevelopmentLab with E-Book student access code card", that is what I expect to get, and I needed all of that for my class. I only recieved the book and no access...

2.0 out of 5 stars Development Across the Lifespan, September 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I was not very happy with my purchase. This is because I did not recieve everything that I was under the impression of purchasing. When the title of your purchase says "Develpment Across the Lifespan (With MyDevelopmentLab with E-Book student access code card", that is what I expect to get, and I needed all of that for my class. I only recieved the book and no access code, therefore was not able to access the online material. I was also not happy with the fact that I had no one to contact about this problem, and had no choice but to keep the book. Overall, this was a very disappointing purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Interesting for a Textbook, December 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Development Through the Lifespan (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
This is a good book outlining the basics of lifespan development (physical, cognitive, and social-emotional). For a textbook it is pretty interesting, though somewhat dry at times. The stories at the beginning of the chapters aren't all that boring (especially for the traditional beginning-of-the-chapter "hook" stories), so that is a nice change. The best parts of the book are the chapters on development up through adolescence. After that, it seems a bit redundant and basically like she's describing "and this is when we die."

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Development Through the Lifespan (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
I bought this for a class and it arrived in perfect condition. I'm doing really well in the class and this book doesn't have any language that is difficult for the average person to understand.

Got the book on-line b/c it was so much cheaper than buying my wife buying from the college's bookstore. No problems, came fast.
