Each title in the Books a la Carte Plus program features the exact same content from our traditional textbook in a convenient notebook-ready, loose-leaf version - allowing students to take only what they need to class. As an added bonus, each Books a la Carte Plus edition is accompanied by an access code to all of the resources found in one of our best-selling multimedia products. Best of all? Our Books a la Carte Plus titles cost less than a used textbook! Laura Berk's "Child Development" has been THE standard for the past 20 years. Now, this 20th anniversary edition promises to build on its long and successful history to remain at the forefront of the continuing changes in child development. The 8th edition contains the most cutting-edge research, new and updated content in every chapter, the latest research and findings, and updated discussions.
