About this title

Synopsis

This book focuses on the different developmental transitions during adolescence and young adulthood and relates them to risks and benefits for young people's health and well-being. This book advocates the broadening of the concept of health promotion to include assistance with negotiating the several changes that occur as individuals move into and out of adolescence. Chapters from many of the most prominent researchers in the adolescent field from several countries are included in this edited volume.

Review

"This is a timely topic...One advantage of their presentation is that contributions were garnered from well-regarded scholars who share findings from sophisticated research programs. Another advantage is the inclusion of research on the oft neglected transition from late adolescence to early adulthood. Researchers and practitioners should find the volume useful in designing future studies, prevention programs, or interventions aimed at understanding and promoting positive physical and mental health among adolescents."
