This third edition of the book offers a current and comprehensive presentation of the main theories of developmental psychology. The text places the major theories of development in historical and contemporary context, giving readers breadth as well as depth of understanding. New to the third edition: an exciting new chapter that integrates Vygotsky's theory, contextualism, ecological psychology, and cultural psychology; new material on Piaget in the last few years before his death; new views of strategies, capacity, and microgenetic changes; new discussion of issues of domain specificity in information-processing, biological, and Piagetian theories; extensive updating throughout. - from Amzon
