The 23 papers in this collection report on contemporary developments in adolescent health and summarize recent research on mental health and social issues impacting Australian teens. Staff at the Children's Hospital at Westmead and the University of Sydney characterize adolescent obesity as a public health concern, share experiences dealing with Australian adolescents from diverse cultural backgrounds, and review interventions that have kept sexually transmitted infection rates low. Other topics include health status of young people in contact with the criminal justice system, chronic illness and transition to adult care, care for young people in a hospital setting, and education initiative for professional working in adolescent medicine.
