Reviews

...provides an excellent summary of current thinking regarding adolescent problem behaviors. Because it serves as an introduction to a wide range of perspectives and disparate disciplines, it has the potential of appealing to a variety of audiences. As a text, it can easily be incorporated into an upper level course on adolescents, whereas for scholars, researchers, and public policy makers, it would provide invaluable exposure to different fields of study and the integrated nature of adolescent behavior problems. -Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology
