Building on Hendry and Kloep's developmental challenge model, published and new empirical research, Taylor (social psychology, U. of Glamorgan, Wales, UK) and Gozna (forensic psychology, U. of
Lincoln, UK) present a holistic, skills-based rather than problem-based explanatory framework for the development of deception. With case examples, they discuss factors influencing adolescent
communication generally, positive as well as negative aspects of deception, its role in psychopathology, and implications for mental health and criminal justice practitioners. Published for the
European Association for Research on Adolescence. Psychology Press is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
