About this book

This comprehensive book of interdisciplinary nature uses indigenous research findings to examine issues affecting the psycho-social health of adolescents and young adults. It explores the psychological, social and biological factors that hinder the well-being of youth, while proposing intervention and the way forward.

Lucidly written to aid understanding, this volume links theory and research in psychology to the Indian social sphere by providing real-life examples and case studies. It explores the causes of clinical psychological disorders and maladaptive behaviour, which when neglected can adversely affect an individual's personality. It points to the detriments of gender-based socialization, abusive marriages, addiction, and traumatic events such as sexual harassment and emotional abuse. The book suggests measures to cope with trauma, prevent suicidal ideation, and build resilience and empathy to foster post-traumatic healing.

This book will help readers overcome stress, disturbed interpersonal and intrapersonal relations, and difficulties regarding communication and negative thoughts. It will also be useful to students, researchers, professionals, counsellors, life skills trainers, and general readers to help them achieve greater success and happiness in life.
