Martinez About the Editors and Contributors 233 Index 243 Series Foreword The Child Psy chol ogy and Mental Health series was designed to capture the dynamic interplay between biology and experience in a format that was more accessible to the general public than is the case for lit er a ture pub- lished in academic scientific journals. The series advocates for a stronger developmental science with re spect to understanding the dynamic changes that characterize the organ ization of be hav ior from prenatal life to that of the adolescent. The series focuses on individual monographs, books, and edited volumes that summarize knowledge advancement with re spect to understanding the origins of developmental psychopathology, effective child care, parenting be hav ior, and the impacts of public policy on pro- grams that impact children from conception through adolescence. Debbie Carvalko, editor at Praeger/ABC- CLIO, originally recruited Susanne Ayres Denham and me to serve as coeditors for the series, an eight- year partnership that produced 10 volumes from 2001 to 2008. Since then, I have served as series editor with an additional nine volumes published, plus the two revised volumes on obesity in childhood and adolescence. One would think that the mental and behavioral health of children would have improved over the past 18 years, but there is evidence to suggest that it has not. The percentage of c hildren exposed to adverse early child expe- riences has increased. The prevalence of childhood obesity has increased. The use of opioids has reached epidemic proportions among adolescents. And the sad fact related to all of these increases is that they are all poten- tially preventable. Advances in developmental science have produced striking new knowledge about the dynamic relationship between the indi- vidual’s genotype and experiences that shape gene expression. We know so much more about the impact of experience on the organ ization of the relationship- and stress- regulatory areas of the brain. And we know how viii Series Foreword impor tant the first five years of life truly are with re spect to the formation of one’s sense of self, other, and self– other relationships. Solving children’s mental health prob lems is impossible unless they are viewed as complex systems, systems that require transdisciplinary efforts to craft more positive and supportive developmental pathways. Therefore, I w ill continue to welcome investigators from the social and behavioral sci- ences, the life sciences, the behavioral neurosciences, and the vast areas of m ental health practice to send proposals for books that w ill help to edu- cate the general public about the crisis in mental health today. As Suzanne Denham and I noted in the first edition of the current volumes, “We are quick to place blame for Amer i ca’s obesity epidemic on single causal f actors, but . . . like many childhood disorders, [obesity] has a multifaceted etiol- ogy and w ill require equally multifaceted solutions.” It should be a m atter of deep societal concern that this message is as true t oday as it was in 2008.
