The content is organized around many real-world issues and educational applications of the adolescent experience. The research support is comprehensive and current. What Educators Can Do sections are very practical and applicable. Students will enjoy this feature. Lynda Randall, CSU Fullerton The biggest strengths [of this text] are the focus on educators and how they can facilitate growth and development and enhance learning among adolescents. I believe this is an excellent text for educators... Farah Ibrahim, University of Colorado Denver I love the organization and the pull back to the classroom application, especially that it is woven in versus saved for the end of each chapter. That is very appealing to me as it will be to any current teacher who feels that some books are too rooted in theory. . . . This is much more accessible that most textbooks, and it has much more likelihood of being read and read carefully by students in the class. It seems more practical and meaningful versus a book that merely mentions the classroom applications. Steve Kucinski, Ohio State University & Otterbein University The key strengths of the chapters and the book overall is the focus on educators. . . . I like the clear, consistent writing style throughout all of the chapters. . . . I would likely give serious attention to adopting this text because of the attention to secondary educators. . . .
