This introduction to adolescent behaviour and development, now in its third edition, takes an eclectic approach to the subject matter, paying special attention to cross-cultural diversity. It encourages students to draw on their personal experiences as they explore the study of adolescence. Issues are examined from the scientific perspective, and the prevailing means of explaining development are provided. This approach allows instructors to interject their own interpretations as they wish.
