Acknowledgments

We would like to thank all of the OER team members who helped guide us through the process of writing and editing this book. It has been a long but fulfilling process.

Most importantly, we would like to thank all of the children, young adults, and colleagues who have shared their life experiences with us. We hope that the content and focus in our textbook reflects the complex and diverse ways in which we all learn and grow.

Lastly, thank you to those who have chosen to review and use Understanding Human Development for your teaching and learning.
