Interpersonal Relationships

Built as a hands-on course in getting along with others, this text walks students through the skills behind friendships, family ties, and working relationships. Its lessons are arranged in a modern sequence and laid out so students can apply each idea to their own lives, talk through it with classmates, and test what they have learned.

The second edition brings the material up to date with recent research on how the adolescent brain and intellect develop. It also adds coverage of human trafficking, practical ways to build mindfulness into daily routines, and how mental health and media shape relationships at every stage of life.
