Book review: Christian Perspective on Human Development edited by Leroy Aden, David G. Benner and J. Harold Ellens
de Koning, J. 1994.  PSCF 46(3):210. CELD ID 13361

Abstract
The book is number seven in the series "Psychology and Christianity." It is divided into three parts: Developmental Theory and Faith, Developmental Theory and the Mature Self, and Developmental Theory in Specific Situations. Sixteen writers contributed to the book. I recommend the book not only to psychologists but also to anyone who is involved in teaching, counselling, or pastoring. The writers want to use psychology's life cycle theories to show how one passes through the stages of life. They want to do so from a Christian perspective. The back cover says that the writers represent a variety of theological and psychological backgrounds.
