What is the book How Children Develop about?

This summary regards the sixth edition of How Children Develop, 2020. The summary has been updated to reflect the changes made to the fifth edition of the book from 2017. The authors of the book are Robert Siegler, Jenny R. Saffran, Elizabeth T. Gershoff, and Nancy Eisenberg. They all conduct research into the development of children.

This summary provides a global overview of the developments and milestones in development of children. First, there's an introduction to child development and then prenatal and infantile development will be described. Secondly, the focus will be on the relationship between biology and behavior. Then, the different theories on cognitive development of children will be explained. We will discuss the development of perception, action, and learning in the infantile period. The development of language, the conceptual development, and the development of intelligence will also be discussed. We will then continues with theories on children's social development, emotional development, and theories of attachment. We will deal with the role of the family in child development, and then we will talk about the role of peers. We will discuss moral development of children, and the topic of gender development. Eventually a conclusion will be made with the most important points that can be drawn from the previous chapters.
