Community/Public Health Nursing 7th Edition
Adolescence is the most formative yet
misunderstood period of our lives. At a time of
heightened concern about teenagers, Coming of Age
draws on a decade of expert research to get
beneath the stereotypes, expose the myths and
reveal the important reasons why teens behave the
way they do.'Wonderful and deeply moving . . .
shows us the potentially positive aspects of
adolescent experiences so often seen as negative'
MARK HADDON'Excellent and insightful . . .
expertly presented . . . Foulkes is steeped in
knowledge about, as well as respect for, teenage
life' ObserverCovering all the characteristic
behaviours of adolescents - from peer pressure
and risk- taking, to sex, love, bullying,
friendship and more - adolescent psychologist
Lucy Foulkes shows that time and again we
mistake, dismiss and even try to prevent what is
actually normal and healthy. Among many
surprising insights, she explains why
self-consciousness, anxiety and
sensation- seeking are crucial features of this
developmental phase. She shows that teenagers are
socially conservative as much as rebellious, and
that apparent recklessness is usually calculated.
She reveals why being popular can be just as hard
as being lonely, and why friendships at this age
shape us for life.Adolescence is often hard, and
most of us have yet to come to terms with our
own. And yet Foulkes shows that adolescents have
an extraordinary capacity for resilience, empathy
and mutual support, and that even the most
difficult experiences are part of an essential
process of self- discovery. This is why
understanding adolescence is the key to
understanding ourselves.âWise and
compassionate, well-researched and
straight-talking . . . shows how today's
adolescents can be helped to flourish in lifeâ
