Provides the most Support for Student Learning and Success
Lifespan Development, 7/e by Denise G. Boyd and Helen L. Bee thoroughly and accessibly addresses the most critical concepts of development. Through their engaging writing style, the authors have made more abstract material about developmental theories approachable to students. Readers will appreciate both the applied nature of this title and the clarity of the authors’ presentation of current research. Students will emerge from your course with a thorough understanding of developmental science and will be able to apply this understanding to their own lives.
MyPsychLab is an integral part of the Boyd/Bee program. Engaging activities and assessments provide a teaching and learning system that will help students master life span development. New features include the updated MyPsychLab Video Series for Lifespan Development, which contains a rich assortment of video clips including sketchnote-style tutorials as well as cross-cultural footage and segments featuring real students sharing their experiences. MyPsychLab also contains MyVirtualLife, an engaging variable-based simulation that allows students to experience lifespan development firsthand.
This title is available in a variety of formats - digital and print. Pearson offers its titles on the devices students love through Pearson's MyLab products, CourseSmart, Amazon, and more.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2011Being my first purchase (and first textbook purchase at that) on Amazon.com, I found this product immediately and to be exactly what I needed for my summer classes. The seller said the book had slight damage, but it was totally perfect! The pages of content were all intact and my order was shipped in the exact time span I needed. It helped me in my class, and now I know where to get all of my textbooks for the upcoming fall semester!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2016Love this book! Easy to read and study. I enjoy studying with this book. Delivered in a timely fashion and in great condition.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2015This book was very useful as well as the price! I will definitely be returning to Amazon to rent or purchase textbooks in the future.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2009I was pretty amazed at the condition of the text book I purchased, until I received it and realized that the seller was right all along that there reviews about a book is what they say it is. I really appreciated the condition of the text book and I will be back sometime in the very near future. Thanks.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2020This copy I rented was pretty clean. There was no notes or highlighted section written on the book. But It had weird chemical smell to it, and if you are sensitive to certain smell, it might bother you. I assume the smell comes from a disinfecting substance that is sprayed on between each rentals during this Covid time. Overall, it was a good rental, still worth it more than buying it.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2015For the price, I think that this textbook lacked a lot of depth. It only hardly touches upon the main aspects of different theories regarding lifespan development. It will lay out the basics of the theories, but will not provide any in depth analyses of them. Also, if you are taking a class that requires you to know the basics of developmental theory like mine did, you would probably be better off just using google to find the theories you are looking for. All of this information is easily accessible online and this text does not offer anything special. It does not assist you in your learning, it only states what you should know. I ended up selling mine during the middle of my lifespan development course because my professor's notes were enough to guide me through the class with a little bit of help from the internet to assist my learning.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2020My book was supposed to common Sunday got it on Saturday... pretty happy no issues.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2017This textbook helps students understand each development in the life cycle of a human. I enjoyed it, and have learn more about human development in each stage our needs are different.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing price and very good condition!
After I read this book, I understood what are the development of human's lifespan.
Clearly, the definition of lifespan is broad and each stage of development in lifespan
from newborn, early childhood through late aldulthood, aging and death. It provides
a lot of knowledge, skills, and experience in human behavior.

Good; still contains as much relevant information as the newer editions, minus the updated research obviously.
