Child and Adolescent Mental Health-1판

Summary:
Ideal for the general practitioner, this practical guide to
pediatric mental health explains the various systems involved in
children's mental health (i.e. schools, social services, the
legal and mental health systems) and addresses common mental
health problems seen frequently in practice.

Included are chapters on learning disabilities, autism, ADHD,
aggression, substance abuse, mood disorders, anxiety disorders,
and a host of other difficulties. Each chapter is written by a
general pediatrician and a child psychiatrist. Blending these
perspectives, the authors present a pragmatic and current
approach to issues of office evaluation, assessment, and
treatment, including pediatric psychopharmacology.
