Description
The first comprehensive text to address adolescent medicine as a separate field of study, COMPREHENSIVE ADOLESCENT HEALTH CARE, 2nd Edition
remains a one-stop resource for primary care providers and adolescent medicine subspecialists, covering all aspects of the field in a
highly practical format. Completely revised, it includes up-to-date information on drug abuse, adolescent sexuality, HIV infections,
violence, ADD and learning disorders, adolescent pregnancy, financial considerations relevant to adolescent health care, and much more.
In addition to its day-to-day usefulness in practice, it is an excellent study reference for the pediatric or internal medicine Boards,
both of which now require knowledge of adolescent medicine.
