Turbulent Times: Confronting the Challenges in Emerging Adulthood was written for the leaders, faculty, staff, and counselors of both higher education institutions and secondary schools; community and business leaders; and emerging adults themselves, as well as their extended family members. This is a book for those who recognize that emerging adulthood has been defined as a unique developmental stage, situated between the end of adolescence and the beginning of true adulthood. While this book largely focuses on understanding the developmental tasks of this stage and how to successfully navigate them, it also discusses the relational nature of thriving in emerging adulthood. Much has been written about the nature of adolescence and the transition to adult roles, but few scholars and practitioners have centered their writings on the incredibly important nature of emotional, social, career, and relational elements of confronting the myriad, simultaneous expectations of the emerging adult period. Secondary students who enter college after high school come face-to-face with academic challenges while they also work through all of the intricacies of separating from community and family of origin and find an initial sense of autonomous identity.
