Handbook of Integrative Developmental Science
Although integrative conceptions of development have been gaining increasing interest, there have been few attempts to bring together the various threads of this emerging trend.

Building upon and inspired by the comprehensive scope of Fischer's Dynamic Skill Theory, this book examines what an integrated t...
