If your a student and your class requires you to get the 5th edition of this book, don't get the 5th ed. You will be fine with this edition. It is is pretty much the same thing. The chapters talk about the same thing, same pictures, and exact same words. The only difference i found was that they pretty much cut and pasted the sections within the chapter and put it in a different order, so page number is a little different. But all the sections are in the same chapter. Get this edition if your on a budget. Its the same book different cover. I mean $20 vs. $110?
Please, please make sure that you talk to your instructor before purchasing this book to see if you need an access key with the book. This book DOES NOT automatically come with the access key. The access key is a code that you enter online to gain online access to all of the additional resources that the class has to offer, which is called the Development Lab. My professor did not use the Development Lab in her lectures so this book was perfect for me! However, if you need the key, it is probably going to be cheaper to purchase it all together, as a set. Otherwise, I did see where was selling the access key for $40, which was still cheaper than what my school was selling it for. I read the other reviews prior to purchasing this book and it seems as though this is where people were the most frustrated with purchasing this book. So, make sure you talk to your professor first! This truly is an awesome text! Very well written, easy to follow!
This book was priced at an astoundingly low price of $15.43, a major difference from the $255.70 to buy, and $227.00 to rent, that my campus bookstore is charging. It's hard enough to pay for the extra fees without having to pay a fortune on books. I am usually a very tough critic when it comes to purchasing things and I expect everything to be in order if I am going to spend money on it. Before I review let me say this, this is just the book MyPsychLab is NOT included with this purchase, nor is there an Access code in the book. My class required only the book. We do not need any Pearson software, my professor does not use it. So if you need the Pearson software, you should buy a NEW BOOK which usually contains the software.I was weary about buying a book that was so cheap and kept thinking "it has to be in the worst possible condition, but hey I am still going to use it because I need the book." I am so happy that I was wrong! The book I received is in excellent condition given it is used. There was minor folds of the corner pages just in the index (2-3 pages max) minor inward folding on the front cover (to be expected because hey backpacks do that sort of thing). Minimal and I mean MINIMAL highlighting or marks in the page. No bright pink highlights or lime green.....lightest yellow highlights possible. Any marks in my book are used sparingly and are so few. The binding is solid and not coming apart and all pages are there. Anyhow I feel that I made a great purchase here and I saved a lot of money by doing so. $240.27 to be exact.
The book is okay... the authors try to make it interactive and interesting. the material is interesting if you are interested in learning it but sometimes the author goes on and on... also my rented book had water damage... hope they don't blame me for that!
I am glad I was able to find this book as arental. It came in good condition and the content of the book is easy to read, although a bit redundant. Much better than spending $200 on a textbook, any day.
Very good book that presented the information in a fun and creative matter. Excellent book for Psych students of all levels and has information that goes above and beyond the basics of developmental psych.
I used this book in our Life Development Psychology. In the course of my study, everything I needed to know is in the book. Feldman is very thorough and organized. I have read other books on this subject in our library but by far this is a superior book. This book deserves 5 stars.
Wonderful textbook. I wish I had the time to digest all the rich information provided in it. I think this text will also appeal to a broad range of people. I needed this book for a counseling curriculum, but anyone would see the value in it. Great topics, detailed data, & extensive sources.
