Description
Why do we develop differently? Where does our individuality come from? What do we inherit from our genes, and how does that engage with our environment in influencing our behaviour?
Developing Difference is the first book of its kind to draw developmental and individual differences psychology together to investigate these fascinating questions.
Key features:
- Draws on neuroscience and psychology to integrate the evolutionary, genetic, social and behavioural aspects of how we become who we are
- Integrates the very latest genetic research
- Considers the unanswered questions that still face differential and developmental psychologists
Developing Difference is essential reading for students studying developmental psychology and individual differences.
