Furda (dean of admissions, Univ. of Pennsylvania) and former New York Times education journalist Steinberg (The Gatekeepers) walk parents through the college admissions process, outlining the choices confronting students: whether or not to attend college, to apply early, to transfer to a different institution, and more. Peppered throughout are activities, such as planning a road trip to visit colleges and having students write down the characteristics of their ideal school. This thorough, instructive book acknowledges the complexity of a parent's role--parents must communicate honestly with their children but take care to avoid becoming overly involved. VERDICT Furda and Steinberg provide a high level of detail, making this volume useful to parents who haven't been through the process before as well as to those familiar with it. A helpful guide for parents with children approaching college age.--Amber Gray, Fogler Lib., Univ. of Maine, Orono
