Fifteen years ago, Jeffrey Jensen Arnett proposed emerging adulthood as a new life stage at ages 18–29, one distinct from both the adolescence that precedes it and the young adulthood that eventually follows. Rather than marrying and becoming parents in their early 20s, most people in developed countries now postpone these transitions until at least their late 20s, spending these years in self-focused explorations as they try out different possibilities in their education, careers, and relationships. Since Arnett proposed his theory of emerging adulthood in 2000, it has turned into a full-fledged academic field, and the ideas have been applied in practical areas as well, such as mental health and education. The Oxford Handbook of Emerging Adulthood brings together for the first time the wealth of theory and research that has developed in this new and burgeoning field. It includes chapters by many prominent scholars on a wide range of topics, such as brain development, relations with friends, relations with parents, expectations for marriage, sexual relationships, media use, substance use and abuse, and resilience. The chapters both summarize the existing research and point the way to new prospects for research in the years to come.

Il libro costituisce un riuscito esperimento di ricerca che ha avuto successo anche come risorsa didattica. Propone una valutazione critica degli strumenti concettuali elaborati per leggere e comprendere una società. Vengono affrontati dieci concetti sociologici (Comunità, Cittadinanza, Classe sociale, Capitale sociale, Genere, Classe dirigente, Partito politico, Cultura politica, Subcultura, Antipolitica) ognuno preso in esame da un giovane ricercatore attivo nell'ambito del dottorato fiorentino di Sociologia e di Sociologia politica. Un coinvolgimento dei giovani che ha consentito una rivisitazione di concetti "vecchi" e l'individuazione dell'efficacia euristica di concetti "nuovi". Gianfranco Bettin Lattes insegna Sistemi sociali comparati presso la facoltà di Scienze politiche dell'Università di Firenze ed è direttore del Centro Interuniversitario di Sociologia Politica (Ciuspo).

"The Young Adult Playbook is written by two college humanities professors with decades of experience advising young adults (from high school through late-twenties) on how to find meaningful work, leisure (free time), and love. In each of these three areas, they offer a change in perspective and vocabulary in the first chapter, and practical steps in the second chapter. The discussion is built around the stories of composite characters--Brooke, Sofia, Olivia, Jonah, Cole, and others--who are based on their own students and other young adults. It includes selections of social science data to give an accurate picture of young adulthood today. It also includes journal exercises for the reader to complete and lined pages at the back should the reader wish to do so in the book itself"--
