Up to date, comprehensive and research based, Adolescence focuses on understanding adolescents' development within the contexts of their environment and social relationships. Professor Steinberg utilizes his expertise as a teacher, researcher and author to produce a text that appeals to professors and students from a variety of disciplines.

The fifth edition of Adolescence has been thoroughly updated to reflect current findings in the field of adolescent development. In this edition, the author continues to utilize the effective combination of a friendly writing style, thorough research and a contextual approach that emphasizes adolescence in contemporary society. The text's careful organization ensures maximum teaching flexibility that allows the chapters to work together or stand alone. Ethnicity and minority issues are thoroughly discussed in a way that enables students to see how the adolescent experience is shaped by class and culture. The strong pedagogical framework helps students organize and integrate material. Although Adolescence, 5e is based on solid research and theory, it has a distinctively "real world" feel that emphasizes the reality of being an adolescent in today's society.
