Overview

Now in an extensively revised and expanded fourth edition, this essential text and clinical guide offers best-practice recommendations for assessing a comprehensive array of child and adolescent mental health problems and health risks. Leading authorities provide an overview of each disorder and describe methods and procedures that take into account the developmental, biological, familial, and cultural contexts of children's problems, and that can inform sound clinical decision making. The fourth edition has been thoroughly updated with the growing knowledge base on child and family disorders and evidence-based assessment. Six new chapters cover bipolar disorder, suicidal and self-harming behaviors, posttraumatic stress disorder, early-onset schizophrenia, learning disabilities, and adolescent personality disorders.
