This book is unique in presenting evidence on development across the lifespan across multiple levels of description (genetic, brain, cognitive, environmental). The authors use a well-defined disorder - Williams syndrome, to explore the impact of genes, brain development, behaviour, as well as the individual's environment on development.

Emily Farran is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology, based at the Institute of Education, University of London. Her primary research focus relates to the development of visual and spatial cognition in typical children and in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. This includes areas such as mental imagery, visuo-spatial perception, spatial language and navigation. Previously Head of the Neurocognitive Development Unit at UCL's Institute of Child Health, Annette Karmiloff-Smith is now Professorial Research Fellow at Birkbeck's Centre for Brain & Cognitive Development. A Doctorate from Geneva University, where she studied/worked with Piaget. Author of 7 books and over 200 chapters/scientific articles, her writings have been translated into 17 languages.
