520 | |a Psychiatric disorders in adolescents are an important social problem relevant to almost all healthcare professionals. The prevalence of mood, anxiety, substance use and other psychiatric disorders among adolescents is high. However, medical professionals are not sufficiently trained about adolescent psychiatric disorders.

Multiple clinical, neurobiological, cultural and legal aspects of psychiatric disorders in adolescents are discussed in this book. | ||
