This product helps students understand how culture impacts development — and why it matters.

*Human Development: A Cultural Approachleads students to examine all stages of development through the engaging lens of culture. The first product to take a wholly cultural approach to human development, this product integrates cross-cultural examples throughout the narrative to reveal the impact of cultural factors both in Australia/New Zealand and around the world.

The authors' emphasis on culture fosters a thorough, balanced view of development that prepares students to face challenges in our diverse and globalised world — whether they travel the globe or remain in their hometowns.*
