Reviews
"Human teens have much in common with their counterparts throughout the animal kingdom - and those commonalities are eye-opening as described in the latest from biologist Natterson-Horowitz and science journalist Bowers. Reassuring ... should appeal to anyone who's ever raised an adolescent, human or otherwise." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "A lucid, entertaining account of how creatures of many kinds learn to navigate the complex world that adulthood opens." -- Kirkus "It blew my mind to discover that teenage animals and teenage humans are so similar. Both are naive risk-takers. I loved this book!" --Temple Grandin, author of Animals Make Us Human and Animals in Translation "Our teenage years can be many things, from fraught and frustrating to exhilarating and joyful. In Wildhood , Natterson-Horowitz and Bowers show that these years are something else altogether--essential for humans and animals in general. Read their enlightening journey and you will never see the transition to adulthood the same way again." --N eil Shubin, Ph.D., author of Your Inner Fish and The Universe Within " One of the most insightful books ever written about this critically important stage of life. Unfailingly fascinating--and sometimes downright mind-blowing--this a remarkably original account of the nature, meaning, and purpose of adolescence in today's world." -- Laurence Steinberg, author of Age of Opportunity: Lessons From the New Science of Adolescence "A masterpiece. This is a spellbinding lens on the ways creatures with big bodies yet little life experience figure out how to survive and thrive. Read Wildhood! " -- Wendy Mogel, author of Voice Lessons for Parents and The Blessing of a Skinned Knee "A deeply researched and beautifully written description of the fundamental tasks of adolescence. The authors' account of the trials faced by teenagers across the animal kingdom inspires compassion for young people and a deep appreciation for what they must accomplish on the journey into adulthood." --Lisa Damour, author of Untangled: Guiding Teenage Girls Through the Seven Transitions Into Adulthood "The authors offer a life-changing perspective on adolescents venturing out into the world. A treasure trove of scientific exploration and practical implications for how we understand and support youth." --Daniel J. Siegel, MD, author of Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain "This fascinating book tells the compelling story of adolescence across species, framed in the convincing context of evolutionary and adaptive explanations." --Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, author of Inventing Ourselves: The Secret Life of the Teenage Brain " Wildhood 's tour of the natural history of adolescence is original, entertaining, and constructive. The transition from youth to adulthood might never be easy, but this comparative biology is full of ideas for understanding it better." --Richard Wrangham, PhD, author of The Goodness Paradox and Catching Fire " Wildhood links coming-of-age neurobiology with ecology and evolutionary biology to create a powerful new lens for understanding the science (and art) of growing up. At times counter-intuitive, at times paradigm-shattering, this illuminating new book generates dozens of hypotheses for raising, educating, counseling and treating, and living life as an adolescent human." --Gene Beresin, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, "An incredibly fascinating read, Wildhood illuminates what humans can learn from the animal world and how all species are more connected to one another than they may appear." -- Booklist, starred review "Human teens have much in common with their counterparts throughout the animal kingdom - and those commonalities are eye-opening as described in the latest from biologist Natterson-Horowitz and science journalist Bowers.

With Wildhood , Harvard evolutionary biologist Barbara Natterson-Horowitz and award-winning science writer Kathryn Bowers have created an entirely new way of thinking about the crucial, vulnerable, and exhilarating phase of life between childhood and adulthood across the animal kingdom. In their critically acclaimed bestseller, Zoobiquity, the authors revealed the essential connection between human and animal health. In Wildhood, they turn the same eye-opening, species-spanning lens to adolescent young adult life. Traveling around the world and drawing from their latest research, they find that the same four universal challenges are faced by every adolescent human and animal on earth: how to be safe, how to navigate hierarchy; how to court potential mates; and how to feed oneself. Safety. Status. Sex. Self-reliance. How human and animal adolescents and young adults confront the challenges of wildhood shapes their adult destinies. Natterson-Horowitz and Bowers illuminate these core challenges through the lives of four animals in the wild: Ursula, a young king penguin; Shrink, a charismatic hyena; Salt, a matriarchal humpback whale; and Slavc, a roaming European wolf. Through their riveting stories--and those of countless others, from adventurous eagles and rambunctious high schooler to inexperienced orcas and naive young soldiers--readers get a vivid and game-changing portrait of adolescent young adults as a horizontal tribe, sharing behaviors and challenges, setbacks and triumphs.

    The book arrived swiftly packaged in a protective plastic envelope, but it was a paperback not hardcover as listed. I contacted seller and they apologized, refunded me and suggested several things to do with the book after allowing me to keep it. I have gone ahead and ordered a hardcover from the same seller. I’m a repeat customer and hope to remain so. This mixup was a first, but I’m very impressed with their prompt response and professionalism. Kudos :)

    My complaint about large book sellers is they don’t securely package their books, and this was no exception. I sell books on eBay and when I do they are usually wrapped in bubble wrap and then with paper bags I obtain from stores and then I use good tape. I get lots of positive reviews for my secure wrapping. This book arrived in thin plastic with no padding. Yes, this was a good price, arrived quickly, and as listed . You get break on postage, use some of that savings for better packaging

    "Wildhood" recommended for all parents of teenagers.

    Had the great privilege of meeting the authors when the book "Wildhood" first came out. As a singing teacher, who often works with students while their voices are changing and they are singing about that era in their life, there are many parallels. This book is ground-breaking and valuable to any person who has a loved one who is going through the transition between childhood and adulthood.
