Book
"In this revised edition, author Kathleen Haywood presents the most comprehensive and up-to-date information available on the principles, research, and applied practice of motor development throughout the entire life span. This undergraduate motor development text covers ? physical growth, maturation, and aging in various body systems; ? development of motor skills during infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood; and ? how motor development is affected by perceptual and cognitive development, physiological responses to training, and psychosocial factors. Life Span Motor Development (Second Edition) also introduces you to concepts like the dynamic systems perspective-a new theoretical approach that is reshaping the way many view the developmental process. A companion manual, Laboratory Activities for Life Span Motor Development (Second Edition), features 20 complete laboratory activities that provide practical applications for the material in the book."--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
