About this title

Synopsis

Emerging adulthood is fraught with more problems than most people realize. The bright side of freedom, growth, and opportunities for emerging adults is accompanied by a darker, more troubling side. Based on a major, national study of emerging adults ages 18-23, this volume gives readers an inside view of some of the unsettling aspects of emerging adulthood and seeks to understand the deeper roots of such problems.
