Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take

Emerging Adulthood in the COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Crises

Sophie Leontopoulou · 2024
74/100
👍 Worth It

A rigorous Springer academic volume that gathers international interdisciplinary research on young adults navigating crisis — the scholarship is solid, the topic timely, and the positive psychology framework gives it more forward-facing utility than a purely pathology-focused collection would. The audience is clearly graduate students and researchers, not general readers, and the price and density reflect that. Within its lane it earns its place on a researcher's shelf.
