Very good paperback copy.
Let's face it, it's tough for teenagers to get straight answers about life's important issues from parents and teachers. GIRLSOURCE bypasses well-meaning adults and goes straight to the source to give teenage girls the answers they are dying to know. Based on a survey of more than 500 young women, GIRLSOURCE addresses real-life topics like stress and depression, menstruation, sex, pregnancy, rape, drugs and alcohol, school, friendship, dating, college, work, and discrimination. Created by teens for teens, GIRLSOURCE reflects the diverse opinions, concerns, and experiences of young women today."GIRLSOURCE is a very valuable contribution to women's health literature. It is a straightforward and highly useful personal guide to help young women make responsible choices for their lives. It provides no-nonsense information about girls' bodies, relationships, rights, and sexuality. The authoritative text on issues from menstruation and fertility to body image and sexual harassment celebrates diversity and is illuminated by the personal stories of young women trying to make good sense of their adolescent experiences." --Gloria Feldt, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and author of "Behind Every Choice Is a Story"
