Central to growing up successfully is learning to deal with stress, endure hardships, and thrive despite adversity. Resilience -- the ability to cope with and overcome life's difficulties -- is a quality that can potentially be nurtured in all young people.

Expert contributors examine resilience in relation to environmental stressors, as a phenomenon in child and adolescent disorders, and as a means toward positive adaptation into adulthood. New and revised chapters explore strategies for developing resilience in the family, the therapist's office, and the school as well as its nurturance in caregivers and teachers."@en
