Child Development: The Developing Child

Comments

Comments: In this miraculous story of life itself, we watch as a one-celled zygote grows into a fully functioning human being in just 266 days. The wonder of this beginning life is shown through the details of the three stages of prenatal development. In updating this very thorough process we have added coverage of current thinking in especially critical areas such as brain and neural development, the effects of maternal drug use including Fetal Alcohol Effect (FAE), the effects of radiation on fetal development, and the differences in momchromatic and dichorionic monozygotic twins. Good nutrition and malnutrition, maternal illness, and other teratogens through the mother effect prenatal and furture conditions of the child. This module explains the current knowledge of the wider environmental and paternal effects on the child. The module represents a significant update to your audiovisual library and is a 'must see' for all students in human development.
