Infos

For adolescents forming a satisfying and satisfactory sense of their own identity, dealing with sexuality is a crucial part of the process. In "Sexuality in Adolescence", Susan Moore and Doreen Rosenthal review current work on adolescent sexual development, including data from their own studies on sexual risk-taking, and the social contexts in which young people form their sexual beliefs. The book looks at the behaviour of adolescents as sexual adventurers, exploiters and victims, and also examines the behaviour and feelings of gay and lesbian youth. The book covers such issues as teenage pregnancy and abortion, family, media and institutional influences on young people's sexual behaviour, and male and female constructions of sexuality. "Sexuality in Adolescence" provides a thorough and comprehensive text for academics and students in psychology, sociology, youth work and health education. Parents, teachers and all those who work with young people should find this important to an understanding what adolescents are currently thinking and doing about sex, and how their values and beliefs have been shaped.
