"In this collection, Mazzarella (James Madison Univ.) brings together scholars from across disciplines to consider a range of topics pertaining to girls' studies globally—e.g., education, media representations, sexuality, race, and religion, among others. As the contributors note, girls are not fragile; rather, they are often empowered to be phenomenal women. However, reaching this state requires support and resources to enable girls to forge a path forward into adulthood. Chapters speak to diverse populations of girls, ranging from resilient to at-risk, and mark how these young women can become strong and adaptive. The authors have an affinity for them, demonstrating through their research how impactful and resourceful girls can be as they develop into young women. This significant study is a formidable primer for practitioners working with young girls."- Diann E. Cameron-Kelly, Associate Professor and Chair of the School of Social Work, Adelphi University, USA
