Understanding the basics of a teenager's mind

We all have to face this time when things change suddenly and we see our body changing fast while we are not children anymore but we can't be considered as adult people yet.However, we might forget about it, and even without forgetting this particular time in our lives, we might have not understood it quite well.Now we might face the time when we get to be parents: what will we do if our offspring is now a teenager? How to understand his/her behavior?Peter Blos gives good directions on how those common questions might be investigated, both for adults and teenagers. The reading of this book can help many people to understand what happens with teenagers observing the changes happening in their particularly mysterious and many times ritualistic world.Ideal for students of Psychology, but it can be read by virtually anyone.
