The Teenage Brain

At no other point in its development is the brain more complex than in adolescence.

Dr. Frances E. Jensen, M.D., an internationally respected neurologist and public speaker, and Amy Ellis Nutt, a Washington Post science writer, come together in The Teenage Brain. The two draw on neurological knowledge, experimental data, and interesting anecdotes to explain teenage development and behavior.

This book uses concrete brain science to present new findings and dispel harmful myths about brain development, providing practical suggestions for parents and teenagers going through the vulnerable period of adolescence. The Teenage Brain is useful for teens, parents, teachers, medical students, social workers, or anyone interested in the science behind the human brain.
