Mind Candy: Who's Minding the Adolescent Brain?
Don Jacobs, Weatherford College
ISBN: 978-0-7380-2138-6 Net Price: $26.00
Dr. Alan H. Hall, M.D. writes: "Don Jacobs understands what adolescents are like, who they are, and what they can be, if we, as parents and adults, do it right. He understands what all caregivers "parents, teachers, counselors, and others who deal with adolescents" should know and the urgency to, at least, make a start. And he has put it all into a book that everyone can read and understand. Mind Candy will help all of us who care about the fact that, when we're gone, there has to be competent and effective people to replace us. Perhaps, even do it a little better. That's the real reason he wrote his "work of love"
