Its multilevel lifespan approach reflects concepts of public health as inclusive, empowering, and aimed at long- and short-term well-being. Coverage grounds readers in theoretical and ecological perspectives, while special sections spotlight key issues in social and behavioral wellness, dietary health, and children and teens in the health care system. And in keeping with best practices in the field, the book emphasizes collaboration with stakeholders, especially with the young clients themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAmong the topics covered:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eChild mental health: recent developments      with respect to risk, resilience, and interventions\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eHealth-related concerns among children      and adolescents with ADD\/ADHD\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003ePreventing risky sexual behavior in adolescents\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eViolence affecting youth: pervasive and      preventable\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eChildhood and adolescent      obesity\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eWell-being      of children in the foster care system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ci\u003eHealth\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003ePromotion\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003efor\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eChildren\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAdolescents\u003c\/i\u003e is a necessary text for graduate or advanced undergraduate courses in public health, education, medicine, psychology, health education, social work, curriculum, nutrition, and public affairs.
