Reviews

Overall this is a timely addition to the increasing literature providing a fine understanding, with management recommendations, for developmental disability in children. The Canadian Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Review This book makes a great contribution to the subject. It has a unique, multidisciplinary approach. Clinicians and other professionals dealing with this field will certainly find the book interesting and useful for the understanding, assessment and treatment of behavioural problems in children. European Journal of Paediatric Neurology
