Review
Review of previous edition: ‘I really do like the balance of theory, evidence for theory and practice, practice tips and worked examples showing how to apply the treatment in real life … I highly recommend this book, to any student, be they new to the field or experienced practitioners of child and adolescent mental health who want a grasp of contemporary CBT in CAMHS.’ Psychological Medicine
Review of previous edition: ‘… clearly written by a number of international authorities in the field. … This book will be useful to child psychiatrists and other child mental health professionals, as well as social workers, educationalists and school nurses. It is highly recommended for bench and departmental libraries.’ European Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Review of previous edition: ‘… impressive … this book is likely to be read and consulted widely by those engaged, or training in, child clinical psychology and psychiatry.’ Behaviour Research and Therapy
Review of previous edition: ‘… recognising the growth of knowledge and importance of the topics covered, I have certainly come down strongly in favour of this book, and it easily passes the test in being an important addition to the literature.’ Primary Care Community Psychiatry
