The Handbook of Clinical Behavior Therapy
with Children is a state-of-the-art review of
the theory, research and practice in child
behavior therapy. The top clinical re-
searchers in the field have masterfully in-
terwoven research with practice to foster a
full appreciation of child psychotherapy
and related treatment. The Handbook ad-
dresses such problems as anorexia and bu-
limia, attention deficit disorders, childhood
depression, child abuse and much more.
New developments in the psychiatric clas-
sification of childhood disorders have
greatly impacted clinical therapy with
children. The Handbook is a thoughtful
presentation that describes where consid-
erable progress has been made and out-
lines auestions that have yet to be an-
swered. Vissza
