Synopsis
Proclaiming alcohol, tobacco, and drug abuse and unsafe sexual behavior to be some of the most "common, costly, and dangerous problems of adolescence," Biglan (Oregon Research Institute), Wang (Temple U.), and Walberg (U. of Illinois at Chicago) present separate chapters that review the scientific literature on each of them. A couple of additional chapters review the literature on the more general topics of antisocial behavior and effective childrearing. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
