Review

In just a few short years, Dr. Dulcan s editorship has moved this volume to the top rank of child and adolescent psychiatry textbooks. Its breadth and depth can be found throughout this new edition, combining neuroscience and genetic research with clinical essentials for each DSM-5 disorder. Treatment approaches are found within each chapter, with additional in depth extensions for psychopharmacology, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, CPT and IPT. --John F. McDermott M.D., Editor Emeritus, Journal of The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry; Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, University of Hawaii School of Medicine

This new textbook is comprehensive, clear, and current. It includes chapters on assessment across childhood, the various psychiatric disorders and approaches to treatment. It rounds those out with special topics including evidence-based practice, cultural and religious issues, legal and ethical issues, and telehealth. --Neal D. Ryan, M.D., Joaquim Puig-Antich Professor of Psychiatry, University of Pittsburgh

Dulcan s Textbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry is a comprehensive reference guide for clinicians who serve pediatric and adolescent patients with psychiatric/mental health issues in primary care. Its overview is broad, giving clinicians a reference point to educate patients and their families and make appropriate referrals for further care. --Barbara Suplit, M.S.N., CPNP, PMHS, Manager, Advanced Practice Nursing and Outpatient Services, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Ann & Robert H.
