Teenagers
'An amazing resource, meticulously researched and full of wise and interesting advice' Professor Suzanne Franks
'Gosling produces a rare entity: a parenting book that is accessible, well evidenced, practical, gritty and not hectoring. In short, one that is genuinely helpful. It's also funny' Hannah Barnes, New Statesman
Teenagers: The Evidence Base deftly summarises decades of research and expert knowledge to offer parents and other interested adults a roadmap to adolescence.
It weaves together insights from fields including social and experimental psychology, neuroscience, family systems, and adolescent development, equipping readers with a clear understanding of what it means to be a teenager today: how they develop, the hazard points and opportunities, and how best to support them as they navigate their labyrinthine and very personal route to adulthood.
This practical, engaging guide is essential for any adult wanting to understand the turbulence, creativity, and brilliance of the teenage years.
