ReviewsThe material is very well written and easy to follow. The references appear to be up-to-date and not misleading. The organization is a major strength of all the chapters., The topic coverage is excellent, and the material presented for each disorder is timely and is done in a thorough manner. What I especially liked was the fact that children of varying ages and of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds were used as examples.

SynopsisThis casebook portrays the rich and arresting nature of disorders that first manifest themselves in childhood and shows how the child's developmental patterns shape the expression of each disorder. Each case is complex and rich and demonstrates how each disorder is expressed-from presentation through diagnosis and treatment-in a way that a case excerpt within a chapter simply can not do. Throughout the book, the author explores the DSM-IV criteria and demonstrates the interaction between developmental and environmental influences for each disorder.
