As usual, the initial section of the volume collects a number of publications that could have particular relevance for the Australian people in terms of potential applicability. These publications are accompanied by a short comment from us, and an explanation of the motives that justify why we have considered of interest the implementation of studies’ findings in the Australian context. An introductory part provides the rationale and the methodology followed in the identification of papers. The central part of the volume represents a selection of research articles of particular sig- nificance; their abstracts are reported in extenso, underlining our invitation to read those papers in full text: they represent a remarkable advancement of suicide research knowledge. The last section reports all items retrievable from major electronic databases. We have catalogued them on the basis of their prevailing reference to fatal and non-fatal suicidal behaviours, with various sub-headings (e.g. epidemiology, risk factors etc). The deriving list guarantees a level
