    Book SynopsisBased on rich interview data drawn from a large scale longitudinal study of homeless young people, this book examines the personal, familial and structural factors that impact on homeless young peopleâs long-term outcomes. While telling the personal stories of young peopleâs experiences, the book refers to the wider research and policy literature on youth homelessness, engaging with key debates about the causes and meanings of homelessness in western societies. The book addresses important issues such as employment and education, engagement with services, social support, connection to family and friends, as well as personal factors including physical and mental health, sexual practices and drug use. Homeless young people are typically portrayed as leading chaotic, risky lives, trapped in a downward spiral of drug use, mental and other health problems, and long-term homelessness. By giving voice to young homeless people, this book challenges this stereotype and demonstrates yoTrade Review"The central chapters (5 through 8) would make excellent reading ... for undergraduate upper division seminars and graduate programs in child and adolescent development, contemporary social issues, and/or training for social workers and educators." – Cynthia C. Siebel in PsycCRITIQUES"This is the best book that has yet been written on homeless youth. Through following young people over time, the authors identify four pathways of homelessness with different origins and outcomes. They bring these homeless youth alive by presenting them in their own voices, using abundant interview material. The book will be highly valuable to anyone who seeks to understand or ameliorate the problems of homeless youth." – Jeffrey Jensen Arnett, Clark University USA"This research project is timely and useful. Homelessness amongst young people is a significant problem and this book provides a positive focus on the structural causes, giving a voice to the young people who are experiencing homelessness. It is a helpful tool for study and also will provide constructive information for lobbying on homelessness issues." – Narelle Clay, CEO of Southern Youth and Family Services, Australia"This is the best book that has yet been written on homeless youth.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Illegal Leisure Revisited

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book updates the progress into adulthood of the cohort of fourteen-year-olds who were recruited and tracked until they were eighteen years old. Illegal Leisure (1998) described their adolescent journeys and lifestyles, focusing on their early regular drinking and extensive recreational' drug use.This new edition revisits these original chapters, providing commentaries around them to discuss current implications of the original publication, plus documenting and discussing the group at twenty-two and twenty-seven years of age. Illegal Leisure Revisited positions the journeys of these twenty-somethings against the ever-changing backdrop of a consumption-oriented leisure society, the rapid expansion of the British night-time economy and the place of substance use in contemporary social worlds. It presents to the reader the ways in which these young people have moved into the world of work, long-term relationships and parenthood, and the resultTrade Review"A fascinating longitudinal qualitative insight with great analysis and research narrative into illicit stimulant drug-taking by young people. ... The quotes from the cohort give a power to the book, the human side drawing you in and giving the real-life scenario. ...This is a book for anyone who is interested in transition to adulthood research, drug culture and addiction, alcohol and public health research, social sciences, social work, human geography and qualitative research." - Charlie Hackett, Robert Gordon University, UK, in Power and Education"This book presents an engaging examination of trends in substance use among youth, providing an important update to the first edition. The authors highlight a number of important and surprising changes in drug perceptions and the relevance of these perceptions for key developmental milestones in adolescence and young adulthood" - Kelly Arbeau, Lecturer in Psychology, The King's University College, Canada"The first edition of Illegal Leisure rightly achieved wide-acclaim, and much critical discussion, for its close mapping and theorisation of the ‘normalisation’ of illicit drug use in Britain during the 1990s. This second edition continues the story. Illegal Leisure Re-visited will be much welcomed by students, researchers and lecturers interested in the most important questions about drug use in contemporary Britain." - Robert MacDonald, Professor of Sociology, Teesside University, UK"A fascinating longitudinal qualitative insight with great analysis and research narrative into illicit stimulant drug-taking by young people. ...
