Overview

Starting with the important aspects of normal development, the reader is then taken on to risk-behaviour and risk-taking, the special issues in adolescent psychiatry, how to assess the patient, clinical conditions, treatment, and finally the forensic and legal aspects of adolescent care and treatment. It should prove a useful text for general psychiatrists in dealing with their adolescent patients, and for specialist child and adolescent psychiatrists, and all those involved in the care and treatment of adolescents with mental health problems.
