About the Book

This affordable paperback course textbook has been adapted from the landmark four-volume Handbook of Applied Developmental Science (SAGE 2003), a work that offers a detailed roadmap for action and research in ensuring positive child, youth, and family development. In 20 chapters, Applied Developmental Science: An Advanced Textbook brings together the latest in theory and application from applied developmental science and the positive psychology movement. This advanced text summarizes and synthesizes the best scientific knowledge from ADS to help readers understand the efforts being made around the world to ensure that all children and adolescents develop into healthy adults who contribute positively to society.   Key Features:   Prominent researchers and practitioners offer state-of-the-art overviews of key areas within the relatively new field of applied developmental science.   In consultation with instructors of applied developmental science and psychology courses, chapters from the 4-volume Handbook Of Applied Developmental Science (SAGE 2003) have been selected that best match syllabi for such courses.   Chapters end with conclusions offering students summaries and future directions, along with references for further in-depth reading.    This new single-volume work will benefit students planning on careers working with children, youth, and families, generally within an educational or community setting. The text is also recommended for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students of Psychology, Human Development & Family Studies, Social Work & Human Services, Education, and related disciplines.
