New Perspectives on Adolescent Risk Behavior

doi:10.1017/CBO9780511571138

In this collection of chapters, leading scholars of adolescent risk behavior present the most recent ideas and findings about the variety of behaviors that can compromise adolescent development, including drug use, risky driving, early sexual activity, depression, and school disengagement. In particular, the volume emphasizes new perspectives on development and on person-centered analysis.

"This is a well written book....of particular interest to clinicians with an interest in adolescent psychiatry." Laurence Jerome, Canadian Academy of Child Psychiatry
