Description
A neurologist offers a revolutionary look at the science of the adolescent brain, providing surprising insights -- including why smart kids often do stupid things -- that translate into practical advice for both parents and teenagers. One of the first books to focus exclusively on the neurological development of adolescents, The Teenage Brain presents new findings, dispels widespread myths, and provides practical suggestions for negotiating this difficult and dynamic life stage for both adults and adolescents. Interweaving accessible scientific data with anecdotes drawn from her experiences as a parent and clinician, Dr. Jensen explores adolescent brain functioning and development, including learning and memory, and investigates the impact of influences such as drugs, multitasking, sleep, and stress.
