Brainstorm takes a fascinating look into the teenage brain and explains why adolescents act so hormonally and recklessly.

Teenagers are the group of people that people hate to love, but also love to hate.

We can't help but get frustrated with them sometimes - but then quickly remember how hard it was to be that age.

We all remember the awkwardness, angst, and risky behavior of the teenage years.

Now that we're adults, though, we wonder how anybody could act in this way.

Much of what happens during our adolescence shapes and defines our adult lives.

And all of the frustrating symptoms of being a teenager are just signs that this transformation is taking place.

In an intriguing venture into the science of adolescence Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain teaches us about the inner workings of the teenage brain.

Most importantly, this book will help us see how to connect with teenagers and help them through these difficult times.

Author Daniel J. Siegel also wrote many books about childhood development such as Aware, No-Drama Discipline, and The Yes Brain.
