About the Author\
John W. Santrock received his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1973. He taught at the University of Charleston and the University of Georgia before joining the Program in Psychology and Human Development at the University of Texas at Dallas, where he currently teaches a number of undergraduate courses and was given the University’s Effective Teaching Award in 2006. John has been a member of the editorial boards of Child Development and Developmental Psychology. His research on father custody is widely cited and is used in expert witness testimony to promote flexibility and alternative considerations in custody disputes. John also has authored these exceptional McGraw-Hill texts: Psychology (7th edition), Children (10th edition), Adolescence(12th edition), Topical Life-Span Development (4th edition), and Educational Psychology (4th edition).\
John Mitterer was awarded his B.A. from the University of Calgary in 1974 and his Ph.D. from McMaster University in 1981. His primary research focus has been the application of technology in education. He has carried out and published basic research and consulted with many companies. He makes extensive use of multimedia in his lectures and has been invited to talk about his approach to lecturing at many conferences. John's research and teaching foci has converged in his multimedia work. He has produced serveral videodiscs and CD-ROMs for first-year introductory psychology courses, and has been Webmaster for the Brock University Psychology Department.\
Extensively developed based on exhaustive reviewer feedback, Santrock/Mitterer Psychology, First Canadian Edition is a highly readable, practical and research-oriented introduction to the discipline. Adapted from the U.S. Sixth Edition, Santrock/Mitterer presents psychology within a Canadian context by using examples, statistics and cultural references that students can relate to. The vital research that shapes psychology is maintained in this edition. No other introductory text provides a better balance of research vs. pedagogy, content vs. applications, depth vs. breadth, and theoretical vs. practical information. All of this is presented in clear, understandable prose and in a highly visual design that is pedagogically sound and striking without being distracting.
