Experience Human Development helps students explore the human side of development through exposure to culture and diversity, evaluation of the science on human development, and immersion in practical applications. Long noted for its wide-ranging coverage of questions of diversity and human development, the 15th edition now has a lengthy Guide to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the preface to summarize and provide transparency on the relevant changes to this important topic. The text combines robust scholarship, citations from the latest research, and a rich and respectful coverage of diversity and equity issues, so that all learners can see themselves within this program.  McGraw Hill Connect’s® digital learning tools are invaluable in helping students synthesize and master the broad scope of content of the lifespan development course.
