xviii, 189 p. : ill. ; 28 cm. This compendium of articles about human development covers the life span, considering physical, cognitive, psychosocial, and spiritual components.... As you explore this anthology, you will discover that many articles ask questions that have no answers.... [However], this anthology is dedicated to seekers of knowledge and searchers for what is true, right, or lasting. To this end, articles have been selected to provide you with information that will stimulate discussion and that will give your thoughts direction, but no articles that tell you what to think. -Pref.
