Synopsis

Synthesizing information about early, middle and late adolescence in every chapter, this text presents adolescence as a normal part of the human life span, connected to, but qualitatively distinct from, middle childhood and from young adulthood. The book uses primary sources of research and offers detailed chapters on physical changes, cognitive changes, self-concept changes, and social reasoning/moral reasoning changes, as well as coverage of such issues as the impact of gender intensification in our society, the Kohlberg-Gilligan debate on moral reasoning, and adolescents and television. The author's approach is gender-fair, with substantial coverage of ethnic, racial and socioeconomic diversity.
