Pediatric Bipolar Disorder

Summary: Excellent All Around Book About Bipolar Disorder in Children
Review: This book was written by three experts in the field and it is practical and well written. The first five sections cover the diagnostic fine points of bipolar disoder in children and adolescents. There is a well written and interesting chapter on biological causes and mechansisms. The last six chapters cover treatment and are very timely and useful covering the use of the newer atypical antipsychotics and combination treatment.
This book is an excellent resource for clincians who treat children with bipolar disoders and parents who want to know more about the diagnosis and treatment of these complicated disoders.
