520 $aParke/Gauvain/Schmuckler is a classic text, strongly grounded in research that uses a topical organization to emphasize the processes of development. It examines a variety of theoretical viewpoints, providing students with a well-balanced view of a child's developmental process. Recurring pedagogical features ensure students see the interrelatedness of chapters and concepts throughout development. NEW TO THIS EDITION: Current Research and Canadian Content: This new edition adds over 900 new references, almost 600 of which have been published since 2004 Sociocultural Diversity: The Third Canadian Edition offers an intensified focus on the ethnic, racial, and cultural diversity of heterogeneous societies like Canada and the United States, as well as on differences among cultures around the world. The revision expands the already strong emphasis on the role of culture in development: the theme of cultural pluralism, introduced in Chapter 1, is reprised in every chapter of the book; and research from the North American culture, as well as from other nations around the world is integrated into each topical discussion. In addition, Perspectives on Diversity boxes featured in each chapter highlight cross-cultural and intra-cultural studies of particular interest. Publisher's note.
