technologies and innovative practices spread in recent years, it is
vital that medical professionals are knowledgeable on the
developments in the pediatric field as well. The Research Anthology

emerging technologies, and challenges in pediatric and adolescent
medicine. It also explains adolescent health management and
promotion as well as recent discoveries on childhood development.
