Psychopathological Disorders of Childhood

Based on rapidly expanding knowledge in the field of child psychopathology, this third edition presents carefully researched, up-to-date summaries of childhood/early adolescent behavioral and emotional problems. The book is a scientific, largely graduate-level introduction presenting authoritative reviews of both medical and psychological viewpoints in dimensional and DSM III terms, and has been expanded in the area of etiology to include familial, social and ecological factors. The previous edition of this book was published in 1979.
