Eleven sections. Zero lectures.
Adulthood does not come with a tutorial. This is the closest thing.
The Missing Curriculum, Volume Two: World Ready is a practical guide to living independently: staying safe at parties and around alcohol, protecting your personal safety and choosing safe transport, managing money and using financial tools, knowing your consumer rights, understanding a contract before you sign it, turning a hobby into income, handling basic vehicle care and roadside safety, tackling everyday handy work, communicating professionally at work, getting into university, and navigating dorm life.
Written for readers aged 13 to 20 (and useful well beyond), this is a stand-alone reading book, not a textbook, with no exercises, no homework, and no tests. Each of the eleven sections opens with a real situation a young person actually faces, breaks down what to do and why, and closes with a Field Card: ten rules worth keeping for life.
Every section is built from primary sources, including the World Health Organization, UNESCO, UNICEF, the International Labour Organization, and the OECD, translated into plain language a young adult will actually read.
Written by George Wehbeh, a former HR and general management executive who spent thirty years designing corporate training and has worked in youth development with UNICEF. He wrote it first for his own children.
The companion volume: Volume One, Growing Up Ready, covers the other half: mental health, relationships, conflict, bullying, digital life, AI, public speaking, habits, and first aid. Available separately or as a set.
