Summary:

"This book explores the issues surrounding girls and young women who
are seen as troubled or troublesome. It sets out to further our
understanding of young women who face or cause difficulties, offering
a diverse and complex view. The contributors to this book do not
simply accept the labelling of some girls and young women as
'problems', but unpick and challenge these labels." "By presenting a
range of theoretical perspectives, readers of this book will be
encouraged to reflect on what underpins the actions of girls and
young women and take their voices seriously. It will be essential
reading for practitioners and professionals in Education, as well as
students and academics in the field."--BOOK JACKET.
