In the Fifth Edition of her acclaimed text, Elizabeth D. Hutchison explores the multiple dimensions of both person and environment and their dynamic interaction in the production of human behavior. Thoroughly updated, the text weaves its hallmark case studies with the latest innovations in theory and research for a comprehensive and global perspective on human behavior.   The companion volume, Dimensions of Human Behavior: The Changing Life Course, Fifth Edition, is a comprehensive examination of human behavior across all major developmental stages. Containing powerful case studies and the most current theory and research, the book includes greater emphasis on more stages than any other text. Together, these two texts provide the most comprehensive coverage available for Human Behavior courses.

Blodgett, West Texas A&M University   “The Hutchison book does an outstanding job of conceptualizing multidimensional understanding, breadth versus depth, and general knowledge and unique situations.”  —Diane Calloway-Graham, Utah State University   “The realistic case studies drive home the point that students are preparing to work with real people confronting serious issues—it adds to the professional development we’re trying to do in our program.”  —Karla T. Washington, University of Louisville   “This text is well written, using fantastic case examples that enhance understanding of the material.” —Donna Taylor, University of Arkansas at Monticello   “Hutchinson offers a unique text by presenting a melding of theory with practice. Utilizing case examples to highlight this intersection of theory, research, and life experiences, this book truly addresses human behavior in the social environment.”  —Carla Mueller, Lindenwood University

I used this book for a social work course. While the book itself is pretty detailed, it does repeat itself quite often and the organization leaves much to be desired. It is visually cluttered; the chapters are without a truly order and that can make it difficult to use for studying.

This book reads like stereo instructions..... It is super unorganized and references so much information that you have no clue what they are talking about. This would be good at a Masters level or higher, but for a B.S. it has way too much unneeded information that fills your head. They should focus on the main points instead of giving you a history lesson on every topic and technique. This book is literally painful to read.

Shipping container was not sealed and documents were missing upon receipt. Book is acceptable.

Served a purpose ,much easier to rent books that to buy them for hundreds of dollars .

Yes it is and I would encourage more people to rent their text from

My class and i enjoy going through all the dimensions

Received in a timely manner and just as described.

It's a great read for my social worker class
