A clear-sighted, accessible look at the teenage mind, from a new perspective. What should I do when I find out that my 12-year-old daughter is having sex? What can I do when I find marijuana in my son's backpack and he tells me it's not an addictive drug? How should I react to my daughter piercing her tongue? Why is my child an underachiever? Anyone who interacts with adolescents-including parents, teachers, clinicians, social workers, and police-will benefit from reading Teen Brain, Teen Mind. Written by renowned psychologist Dr. Ron Clavier, Teen Brain, Teen Mind examines the neurological changes in the brain that underlie many of the emotions of young people.

DR. RON CLAVIER bases his clinical psychology practice on his background as a neuroscientist. In addition to this private practice, he consults in the corporate, community, health, and education sectors. He worked for a number of years as a research consultant in Psychiatrist at the University of Toronto and as a senior consultant to the Council on Drug Abuse. He is working on a new book about surviving in a risky world. Dr. Clavier lives in Toronto, Ontario.
