BOOK
The rates are on the decline worldwide. But adolescent
pregnancies still occur, placing millions of girls each year at
risk for medical complications and social isolation, and their
babies for severe health problems--especially when prenatal care
is inadequate or nonexistent
But as the opportunity for young women and girls increases around
the world, adolescent pregnancy will continue to decline
Featuring reports from countries across the developed and
developing worlds, the International Handbook of Adolescent
Pregnancy analyzes the scope of the problem and the diversity of
social and professional responses. Its biological/ecological
perspective identifies factors influencing childhood pregnancy
as well as outcomes, challenges, and needs of very young mothers
as they differ across nations and regions. Salient comparisons
are made as cultural contexts and community support vary widely
and attention is paid to issues such as child marriage, LGBT
concerns, and the impact of religion and politics on health care
particularly access to contraception, abortion, and other
services. This global coverage heightens the understanding of
readers involved in care, education, and prevention programs, and
otherwise concerned with the psychosocial development
reproductive health, and general well-being of girls. Included in
the Handbook:
* Biological influences of adolescent pregnancy.* Adolescent
maternal health and childbearing.* Adolescent pregnancy and
mental health.* International perspectives on adolescent
fathers.* Adolescent pregnancy as a feminist issue.* Adolescent
pregnancy as a social problem.* Plus viewpoints from more than
thirty countries
As a unique source of up-to-date findings and clear-headed
analysis, the International Handbook of Adolescent Pregnancy is a
go-to reference for practitioners and researchers in maternal and
child health, pediatrics, adolescent medicine, and global
health
