Developmental Behavioral Neuroscience

Gunnar, Megan R.; Nelson, Charles A.

"There have been few attempts at organizing these issues into a manageable form so that workers in the field can find out about those state-of-the-art attempts at integrating developmental, behavioral, and neuroscience research. Volume 24 from the Minnesota Symposia on Child Psychology series is an admirable attempt at filling this void....Each of the chapters is quite good, covering in some detail the central research issues for its field....an excellent resource."—Contemporary Psychology
