Book excerpt: Teens in European countries have a number of similarities. But, because Europe consists of such a diverse group of countries, differences do exist. These differences can be attributed to a variety of economies, geographies, and politics. American teens will find a special interest in the region, as it is the region in the world most similar to their own culture. Each chapter covers a country in the region, and is written by a native of that country. The 12 countries profiled are Denmark, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malta, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Turkey. Each chapter concludes with a resource guide providing print and electronic sources for additional research.
