As scientific inquiry and public interest in the adolescent brain
grows, so too does the need for an accessible textbook that
communicates the growing research on this topic. The Neuroscience
of Adolescence is a comprehensive educational tool for
developmental cognitive neuroscience students at all levels as it
details the varying elements that shape the adolescent brain.
Historical notions of adolescence have focused on the significant
hormonal changes that occur as one transitions from childhood to
adolescence, but new research has revealed a more nuanced picture
that helps inform our understanding of how the brain functions
across the lifespan. By emphasizing the biological and
neurobiological changes that occur during adolescence, this book
gives students a holistic understanding of this developmental
window and uniquely discusses the policy implications of
neuroscience research on the lives of young people today.
