Now in a fully revised and updated second edition, this authoritative text integrates state-of-the-art theory and empirical research on a wide range of child and adolescent disorders.

Each chapter focuses on a specific disorder, describing its characteristics, developmental course, and epidemiology; outlining current diagnostic and classification schemes; identifying risk and protective factors; and discussing implications for prevention and treatment. Including a new chapter on adolescent substance use disorders, the second edition has been updated throughout to reflect important advances in the field. Incorporated is emerging knowledge in the areas of neurobiology, genetics, developmental psychology, and emotions, as well as new findings on sex differences in psychopathology and long-term outcomes for children at risk.

Customer Rating:      Summary: excellent but advanced Comment: I agree wholeheartedly with the product description and what the reviewers said. As a master's student in psychology, this is the most advanced text in psychology I have ever read. It requires patience, determination, and i would say an underlying love of the subject. however, if you want to know about the disorders and research on them, this is the book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not a light read... Comment: The previous edition of this book was required reading for a Developmental Psychopathology course I completed as part of my graduate training program in educational psychology. Another more "reader-friendly" text was also required; however, I found myself referencing this book often as it is probably the definitive source of empirically based information in this subject area. I highly recommend this book for graduate students or professionals accustomed to reviewing research literature. Do not purchase this book if you are unfamiliar with chapters outlined by subsections with titles such as epidemiology, etiology, diagnostic considerations, differential diagnosis, comorbidity, and developmental outcomes.
Customer Rating:      Summary: provokes aversion to reading Comment: I had it for a class with the most exciting, wonderful, engaging professor a student could dream of. This book was an unbearable drag. This book's format made it nearly impossible to read, impossible to enjoy. I hope the new edition will be revised for (I admit it) "computer-era" students who don't know how to read a densely written book with minimalistic print and no illustrations. They still might make excellent psychotherapists (I hope) who shouldn't bypass this rather informative and significant book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: came as ordered Comment: The book came in a timely manner and arrived in new condition exactly as I ordered it. Very pleased.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Hard to read Comment: This book is very hard to read. There are citations throughout the text, and the information is not divided into many sections. The text is small, there are no graphics, key words or chapter summaries. Its a lot of valuable infomation, if you can keep your eyes open long enough to read it.
