I recieved this book as a gift. The thought was there; the content not. It may be a good book for youth, but researching suicide, I felt it somewhat trivial. Almost an insult to my intelligence (I have read many books). While it may have some use for adolesence, if you are looking for insight and statistics, look elsewhere. I did like the fact that it breifly included sexual orientation. I also liked the fact that it spoke of support groups. Much of it was unobtainable to most...i.e. going to the radio. Any book on teen suicide deserves kudos, but if you want real facts, look furher...
