Title: The best book on adolescent development in the 21st century
Review: As the author of a book on teens and adolescent development, I'd recommend THIS book as the best current book on adolescent development that's been written. The problematic and accurate nature of that statement is that Prof. De Zengotita hasn't written a book on adolescent development--it's a book on media studies and culture. And there's the rub. If, in 2012, you want to know anything accurate, useful and prescient about how American adolescents develop their identities, you must understand the bi-direcitonal effects of media. This is one book every involved, caring parent will want to read. I'm quite sure he'd reject the hyperbole, but I feel strongly about parents reading the title.
