Abstract:	This volume of Adolescent Medicine: State of the Art Reviews (AM:STARs) examines the complex spectrum of normal sleep and sleep disorders in adolescents. It is the first compendium of its kind from some of the leading national and international researchers and experts on sleep in children and adolescents. These articles will provide the reader with a greater understanding of the physiology of normal sleep during adolescence, the pathophysiology and management of common medically based and behaviorally based sleep disorders and the significant public health factors that both contribute to sleep disorders during adolescence and threaten the safety and wellness of adolescents who suffer from sleep disorders.
