Thinking Critically About Child Development by Jean A Mercer
In the updated Third Edition of the previously titled Child Development: Myths and Misunderstandings, Jean Mercer offers 59 essays that confront popular misconceptions and fallacies about the field. Intriguing vignettes and critical thinking questions frame each essay, encouraging readers to think like social scientists and become better consumers of media messages and anecdotal stories. Timely topics and DSM-5 references make the book an engaging supplement for both chronologically and topically arranged child development texts.
"This engaging book teaches both the critical thinking skills and the uncritical thinking fallacies that we all need to know about in order to effectively evaluate the many notions we are exposed to regarding the developing childEach claim opens with a fun brief story with which to practice a reasoned approach to examining evidence."
