Beyond appearance : a new look at adolescent girls

This volume presents a view of adolescent girls that emphasizes their strengths as well as the challenges they must meet. In the book, the authors review and assess research on girls from a variety of racial and ethnic as well as socioeconomic backgrounds, searching for commonalities as well as differences. Topics explored include those at the heart of adolescence, including gender role prescriptions, body image concerns, the neglected experiences of adolescent girls of color, relationships with family and peers, sexual decision making, experiences at school and in the community, and health and safety concerns. In the concluding chapter, the author suggests ways of improving the support psychologists and others give to adolescent girls on their developmental journey. The book is intended for a wide audience of professionals interested in this critical period of development and growth. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved).
