Child and Adolescent Psychiatry: A Comprehensive Textbook

Rating:
Summary: Child Psychiatry Review
Review: After a considerable search to find a professional level, readable, up-to-date Child and Adolescent Reference, Lewis' work fully meets or exceeds my expectations. Articles draw on expert opinion, research findings and clinical practice to give encyclopediac references. A very wide scope. The only comparable volumes are the Comprehensive Textbook of Psychiatry VII, and that reference is not child-centered but rather adult-focused. This volume excels in clarity of presentation even as it delivers extensive and thoughtful clinical/theoretical material.
