Summary: Review: Seigler --- How Children Develop, First Edition
Comment: I teach child psychology with this book, at a college. The book is topically arranged (not chronologically arranged), and, overall, the writing is excellent. Two chapters (Ch 12: The Family) and Ch. 13 (Peers) are not taught in my course; instead, students do chapter tests on those two for extra credit. The Instructor's Test Bank by Jill Saxon is mediocre, but was greatly improved for the Second Edition. The Second Edition is 98% identical to the First Edition, so I continue to teach with the First Edition. The three authors' coordination of topics was moderately successful, but the topic of "social referencing" is freshly described in at least three separate chapters, suggesting that authors did not realize that this term was presented elsewhere in the book, in addition to their own presentation. I continue to buy these books to give to students in the class as prizes for high test performance, or for most-improved test performance. SB

"How Children Develop" is a topically-oriented, non-encyclopaedic text that will captivate students with the latest, most-essential research findings without overwhelming them with excessive detail. The eagerly awaited second edition offers a new chapter on 'Gender' as well as refreshing new work on 'Conceptual Development', all augmented by updated, significant research on all other topics throughout. The dynamically enhanced media and supplements package adds the perfect compliment to this stimulating and well-received text. Supplements: Instructor's Media Toolkit DVD (0-7167-7607-3); Video (0-7167-7609-X); CD (0-7167-6723-6); Student Media Toolkit (0-7167-7608-1); Overhead Transparencies (0-7167-6719-8); Printed Test Bank (0-7167-6725-2); CD Test Bank (0-7167-6724-4); and Instructor's Resource Manual (0-7167-6722-8).
