Publisher's Synopsis
Recent reports have suggested that child and adolescent mental health in the UK is in crisis. It is more important than ever for informative and up-to-date information on this topic. This updated and revised core resource is essential for those working or training in the field of child and adolescent psychiatry. Featuring new chapters that address key disorders and service provisions, the book covers anxiety disorders, mood disorders, specialised services, and developmental theories. From assessment to outcome, normal development to unusual syndromes and theoretical perspectives to treatment, this is a clear and invaluable overview of the field. Part of The College Seminars series, and directly mapped to the MRCPsych curriculum, this book is a key resource for psychiatric trainees.
