Reviews'I've already used this book in pre-publication format to teach a graduate seminar. It worked wonderfully well! I look forward to designing an undergraduate course around it. It's just what the field needed to coalesce around core discoveries and insights, and to teach the basics of techniques.' Nora S. Newcombe, Temple University

SynopsisA thorough introduction to the scientific interface between biological studies of the brain and behavioural studies of human development. Designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in developmental cognition or neuroscience, this textbook reviews the field's history, and synthesises current findings and future research directions., An exciting introduction to the scientific interface between biological studies of the brain and behavioural studies of human development. The authors trace the field from its roots in developmental psychology and neuroscience, and highlight some of the most persuasive research findings before anticipating future directions the field may take. They begin with a brief orientation of the brain, along with genetics and epigenetics, and then summarise brain development and plasticity. Later chapters detail the neurodevelopmental basis of a wide variety of human competencies, including perception, language comprehension, socioemotional development, memory systems, literacy and numeracy, and self-regulation. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in developmental cognition or neuroscience, this textbook covers the prenatal period through to infancy, childhood, and adolescence. It is pedagogically rich, featuring interviews with leading researchers, learning objectives, review questions, further-reading recommendations, and numerous colour figures. Instructor teaching is supported by lecture slides and a test bank.
