内容简介

Preface to the
Second Edition
The first six chapters of this book??? the ones that deal with the
changes that are happening in children s bodies during puberty???
are quite similar to those in the first edition. I haven t made any
major revisions in these chapters because there simply wasn t any
reason to do so??? and I don t expect there ever will be. No matter
how much the times may change??? kids will undoubtedly continue
to go through the same sequence of physical changes??? and have
the same questions??? concerns??? and anxieties about these changes
generation after generation.
Thus??? the major revisions in this new edition come later in the
book. The original Chapter 7??? which was a sort
?????? of catch-all chapter
entitled \"Sexuality??? has been replaced with three new chapters:
\"Sexual Intercourse??? Pregnancy and Childbirth??? and Birth Con-
trol\"; \"Sexually 11ansmitted Diseases??? AIDS??? and Other Sexual
Health Issues\";
go \" and \"Romantic and Sexual Feelings.\" I decided to
into more detail on the subjects I d only
the original chapter for briefly mentioned in

material; it was too sketchy. Indeed??? in
;orne cases??? it seemed to raise nlore questions than it answered.
