"Excellent Book!" according to Amazon Customer. I had to purchase this book for a class entitled, "Adolescent Issues", this book is very appropriate for the class I am taking and is hard to put down at times, totally AWESOME!. trichampion said This book lacks depth.. I am currently in a Social Work program and can not figure out why this textbook is being used. This book flings a cornicopia of statistics at the reader while giving little interpretation of the data presented. At Risk Yourh does not give adequate description of relevant developmental stages nor the recommened therapeutic interventions suggested for treatment. I recommend this book for high school st. "Wow too much BS" according to joe roberts. Absolutely too racist, blames everything on skin color instead of parental supervision, the truth is better than fiction. If we use race as an excuse what's next, age?
