The complexity of human development presents the field with the challenging task of examining complex issues and effects across the lifespan, and this is why we find the field segregated into specific areas/theories such as thinking and reasoning, emotion, personality, social understanding, and language. Select one of the traditional biological views of Rousseau or Gesell and compare and contrast the more contemporary biological views presented by Dr. Shonkoff in the video The Science of Early Childhood Development.

Students should consider a minimum of two key points for this paper.
