Adolescence

This textbook is an easy ready -- perhaps a bit too easy for college grade students, but it is very straight forward and easy to follow.

Not Bad for a Textbook

I purchased this for a class. My uncle, who is a school psychologist, told me that Adolescent Psychology is one of the most interesting yet overlooked classes, so when it was offered, I took it to fulfill my requirement. Anyway, the topic was really interesting. This book spelled out everything in a clear and concise way. It was simple to understand, yet introduced new concepts and ideas. In addition, this text has a whole online study area you can go to and take practice quizzes, do activities and things like that. I would totally recommend that Psych professors use this text, and also, that if given the chance, students take Adolescent Psych! :)
