"A radical reframing of our understanding of the teenage mind, that
explains typically ridiculed behaviours such as risk-taking, emotional
instability and heightened self-consciousness as outward signs of great
transformation, has won the prestigious Royal Society prize for science
book of the year."

Interesting!  Via Kam-Yung Soh.
