Handbook of Mental Health Interventions in Children and Adolescents An Integrated Developmental Approach

"Should be read by everyone who treats children and adolescents." -Helmut Remschmidt, M.D., professor of child and adolescent psychiatry, Philipps-University, Marburg (Germany), and president, International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions "The comprehensiveness of scope and the scholarship of the contributions will make this the definitive book on treatments in child and adolescent psychiatry." -Glen O. Gabbard, Brown Foundation Chair of Psychoanalysis, and professor, Department of Psychiatry, Baylor College of Medicine "At last, a comprehensive psychiatric text based on biopsychosocial development and goal-directed treatment processes rather than reductionist diagnostic categories. This is the first wave of the future." -Barry Nurcombe, M. D., emeritus professor of child and adolescent psychiatry, Vanderbilt University and the University of Queensland "This unique volume does justice to the state of the field without sacrificing any of the complexities we encounter in treating young patients. I have no doubt that it will become a standard in the field of developmental psychiatry." -Alan F. Schatzberg, M. D., Kenneth T. Norris, Jr., Professor and chairman, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University School of Medicine "Mindless polypharmacy is a threat to our field-our patients and trainees deserve better. This volume presents an integrated view of available interventions. I am certain that it will become a valuable resource for any serious student of developmental psychopathology and child and adolescent psychiatry." -James F.
