Brown (Medical U. of South Carolina) introduces this handbook's 38 chapters by <br />
explaining how provision of mental health care to youth has paralleled changes <br />
in other areas of health care. For example, schools must face the fact that 10-<br />
15 percent of US school children have a chronic medical condition that may be <br />
influenced by lifestyle. Contributors discuss working with schools to prevent <br />
and manage health problems and their psychological sequela; early identification <br />
and intervention efforts; and conditions encountered in school settings from <br />
asthma to AIDS. Other topics addressed include peer relations, professional <br />
training, and ethical and legal issues.<br />
