书籍简介

这是一本更新的指南，深入剖析青少年行为背后的生物学奥秘。

与大众（尤其是家长）的看法相反，青少年并非像他们周围的成年人有时认为的那样，是故意懒惰、冒险和逃避教育个体。在青少年时期，大脑正经历着自两岁以来剧烈、根本的变化。尼古拉·摩根以严谨的研究、通俗易懂且充满同理心的笔触，探讨了青少年大脑的起伏变化，书中章节涵盖了强烈的情绪、性别差异、睡眠需求、冒险冲动以及成瘾或抑郁背后的原因。这本经典畅销书的更新版包含了重要的成果，并新增了关于社交媒体的章节，使其成为青少年和成年人的需要指南。

A comprehensive and fully updated guide to the biological mysteries that lie behind teenage behaviour.

Contrary to popular (parental) opinion, teenagers are not the deliberately lazy, risk-taking and work-avoiding individuals they sometimes appear to be to the adults around them. During the teenage years the brain is undergoing its most radical and fundamental change since the age of two. Nicola Morgan''s carefully researched, accessible and empathetic examination of the ups and downs of the teenage brain has chapters dealing with powerful emotions, gender differences, the need for more sleep, the urge to take risks and the reasons behind addiction or depression. The comprehensively updated edition of this classic bestseller contains important new research and a brand-new chapter on social media, making it an essential guide for teenagers and adults alike.
