Summary:"This book focuses on sex in adolescence and the problem of growing up. It is written with the realization that attitudes towards sexual conduct have been affected by the atmosphere of the times and that rules and ideas suited to past generations are no longer applicable today. In writing this book, the author talked to adolescents as well as parents, physicians, clergy, teachers, counselors, psychiatrists, psychologists, and other professionals in the wide field of adolescence. The book covers such topics as the anatomy of sex, adolescent sexual and emotional development, sexual feelings and expressions, hetero- and homosexuality, pregnancy, and marriage. The book is designed for adolescents, and it is also for parents who feel the need for assistance in understanding some of the questions and problems that arise in young people's minds"--Create.
