Human development across the life span

Organized around the life cycle from conception through old age, this nursing text connects developmental topics with health promotion, maintenance, and restoration in clinical practice. Its seventh edition covers subjects including social determinants of health, vaccines, pandemics, family diversity, substance abuse, child abuse, and grief. Chapter-opening learning outcomes, key terms, and concepts establish a study framework, while evidence-based practice and safety features, case-based questions, and NCLEX-style questions bring the material into a clinical-learning context. The book also addresses the transition between nursing courses through its LPN/LVN Connections features.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • LPN/LVN students studying human development and health promotion
  • Nursing learners seeking chapter-based review with clinical questions and safety content
  • Students preparing to connect life-stage concepts with patient care
