Bringing together foremost authorities, the volume reviews the breadth of current knowledge on socialization processes across the life span. Contributors present cutting-edge theories and findings pertaining to family, peer, school, community, media, and other influences on individual development. Genetics and biology, cultural psychology, and affective science are given particular attention.
