"College or university students represent the best example of the period of youth in human life, a perplexing mix of doubt, vigour and hopes. This book brings to light some of the problems faced by young people in this phase. An attempt has been made to find out the type of reactions college students make to such problems.

This book will be an essential resource for teachers, psychologists, social workers and other professionals working with college students, as well as for parents seeking to support their children with special needs throughout their development." (jacket)
