Overview"""A handbook to guide parents and teachers through the science of helping children succeed"" ""In his international bestseller How Children Succeed, Paul Tough introduced us to research showing that personal qualities like perseverance, self-control and conscientiousness play a critical role in children's success. Now, in Helping Children Succeed, he outlines the practical steps that adults - from parents and teachers to policymakers and philanthropists - can take to improve the chances of every child, however adverse their circumstances. And he mines the latest research in psychology and neuroscience to show how creating the right environments, both at home and at school, can instil personal qualities vital for future success."""
