Essentials of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry

Abstract

A brief but compassionate chapter by Hector H. Bird, M.D., on presenting treatment recommendations highlights the therapeutic alliance and parental anxiety associated with a child's psychiatric evaluation. However, this book succeeds as an excellent resource for practicing physicians, trainees, and mental health practitioners wishing to become more comfortable and knowledgeable in providing evidence-based mental health care to children and adolescents.
