The book covers some key areas that align with my teaching for the module, such as attachment, Erikson, and loss. As such, I felt that this was an accessible and useful text to add to this module.

This was a brilliant book that I drew on substantially in developing my sessions for social work apprentices (L5) on their theoretical perspectives in social work module. It was easy to understand with some great exercises in to help relate the ideas to practice. This book was used by our students within their assignments to a significant extent.

Useful book and helps to explain theory links for human growth and development. Lots of key theorists including Bowlby, Erikson, Freud are discussed with good links to social work practice.

This is an accessible read and very useful for student social workers. If you need to better understand life course theory, particularly key psychodynamic theory’s and concepts, and their impact across the life course this book covers key theories where case studies are used to support learning and Help in application to practice.

A very helpful addition to the subject, with the life-span approach logical and helpful to students.

Well written, this covers a good range of developmental theories, explaining them in a clear manner, which will help students to develop their knowledge of human growth and development. It is very helpful to have critical thinking boxes, which prompt students to engage further. Links to social work practice are also helpful.

This is an excellent text which comprehensively covers this subject area. Highly recommended.

This is one of several texts for Social Work students which explains key lifespan theories, and applies them to assessment and intervention. The use of case examples, and critical thinking tasks is excellent, as is the 'how does this help social work' sections.

As a tutor who teaches Human Growth & Development this book will be very useful addition to our learning resources.
The links from theory to practice are particularly good and will offer a good insight for my students

An excellent book and useful for all health and social care students. Development across the lifespan is clearly discussed in a student-friendly way that really brings ideas to life. Theories are presented in a very accessible way and linked throughout to the real person - very important in ensuring students connect theory to practice. I will be recommending this book to my students.

An excellent book just suited to the module run within the degree programme. It covers a lot of material to applying social work theory to practice.
