This book will introduce your students to studies in developmental
psychology that changed the way we think about the discipline today.
Each chapter provides details of the original work and explains their
theoretical and empirical impact, before discussing the ways in which
thinking and research has advanced in the years since the studies were
first conducted.
This edition looks at 16 different studies including topics such as the
visual cliff, object permanence, and attachment as well as researchers
such as Piaget, Vygotsky, and Ainsworth.
