The Adolescent as Decision-Maker Summary

The Adolescent as Decision-Maker: Applications to Development and Education by Allen J. Edwards (Southwest Missouri State University, Springfield, U.S.A.)

This book reviews current theories and research on adolescent development and their implications for education.

The issues raised by the thoughtful reviews will stimulate discussion and debate and will provide new perspectives on adolescence.

The Adolescent as Decision-Maker Reviews

For a thorough coverage of the research in the field, this book is preferred... Thorough chapter references and index. The final chapter on legal principles is excellent. --CHOICE This text is recommended, especially for its chapters on motivation, sexuality, and the law. --READINGS All of the information in this book can be extrapolated to adolescent health care, particularly if applied to evaluative of educational aspects of care. The Adolescent as Decision Maker is, as well, a great resource for researchers because each contributor notes areas where further study is needed.... The book is well organized and well written.... Of most interest to CNMs involved in research or education, some clinicians will find the information to be very useful. --JOURNAL OF NURSE-MIDWIFERY
