Teenagers reimagines the way people think about adolescents. No
longer society's scourge and scapegoat, the teenager emerges from
David Bainbridge's fascinating study as an awe-inspiring natural
phenomenon that evokes reverence and wonder. Bainbridge, a
veterinarian and anatomist, suggests that the second decade is the
most important in the human lifecycle. In lively prose, he explains
the science behind the changes that occur both on the surface of
the teenage body and deep within the teenage brain, from lanky
limbs and bad skin to falling in love, sleeping till noon, and the
irresistible allure of sex, drugs, and rocknroll. Observed through
a scientific lens, these bizarre biological transformations and
behavioral anomalies snap into focus, as not only a beautifully
choreographed sequence of steps on the path to adulthood, but also
as a key evolutionary factor in the success of the species.
