"The research papers in the collection are excellent. Both the
Chicago group's study of murderous adolescents and the excellent
study of adolescent suicidal behavior by Woznica and Shapiro are
excellent examples of research that addresses clinically relevant
questions without ignoring vigorous scientific method....Overall,
this is a fascinating read. It touches on many of the crucial
issues in the care of adolescent patients, teaching us much and
pointing the directions in which we need to move to broaden our
knowledge and understanding."-John E. Meeks, M.D. Author of The
Fragile Alliance
"This volume is a vast treasure trove of theoretical, clinical, and
research information on "The Adolescent in Turmoil.,.".The book,
well written and skillfully edited, is a must read for clinicians
working with adolescents. It can be studied in depth and used as a
reference source."-James F. Masterson, M.D.
