Understanding Youth: Adolescent Development for Educators 10/28/06 Edition

This is an amazing book. I am currently using it in my education program and it allows me to understand children and myself as well.

Amazing book. Explores several theoretical perspectives regarding adolescent development with a series of case studies that help elaborate. Excellent help for me as an Educator - highly recommend this to parents who want to develop a better understanding and relationship with their children.

Awesome book! Super useful and very approachable information (easy to read, while still being information rich) about adolescents and this important transitional period in life. I would recommend this to any teacher of adolescents, and to parents wanting to be better informed about their children's inner lives and workings. I read it as part of an MAT class in adolescent development, and it was a great "textbook".

Got this for a class but it has great information for new teachers.

It was a helpful book, although very redundant. Everything that was packed into ten, fifteen pages could have easily been said in a couple. It is a book that is pretentious when the points were as simple as they could be without all that effort. Putting aside my thoughts of how it was written, it is a book helpful for educators.

Great book about teens! I highly recommend this text for parents, high school teachers, or others working with teen.

I gave a great book report.

It is too general to be useful
