Violent television programmes and video games, printed tobacco advertisements, television beer commercials and sexually suggestive music how do these and other forms of popular media affect teenagers′ thinking, behaviour and health? This volume clearly makes the case that the media play a role in diverse facets of at-risk behaviour and adjustment.

He explores topics critical to mental and physical health including teenage violence, sexual activity, substance abuse and eating disorders.
