Statistical Handbook on Adolescents in America

Drawing from the 1990 US Census, government surveys, and private sources, the editors present some 450 tables, graphs, and charts covering adolescent issues relating to family, health, childcare, education, economics, quality of life, recreation, deviance, sex, marriage, and parental relations. Includes coverage of the characteristics of teens with black, white, and Hispanic mothers and of male versus female adolescents, with some data presented over time so that trends can be observed. A brief analysis of the data accompanies each section.
