One in Thirteen: The Silent Epidemic of Teen Suicide

An estimated one in every thirteen high school students will attempt suicide this year. In One in Thirteen, journalist Jessica Portner interviewed over a hundred teenagers, parents, educators, and experts and reviewed volumes of research on the subject to answer the question of why this has become an epidemic in our society.

Teenagers continue to be an at-risk group for suicide and depression, and this book presents the societal factors that affect them as well as the inner struggles they face.
