Development from Adolescence to Early Adulthood

Traditionally the subject of adolescent development has been explored using a stage based approach, with the potential pitfalls and upsets of adolescence often focussed upon. In this book the authors draw on a wealth of research to examine the period of development from adolescence to adulthood using a dynamic system approach; examining realistic, multi-variable explanations to the transitions and consequent transformations that occur in young people as they face this time of their life.The book considers the social institutions, interactions, contexts and relationships that interact and influence each other in normal positive development.
