Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Signifying the growing recognition and significance of depression in children, clinicians and researchers Cytryn and McKnew deliver comprehensive, authoritative, and current information on the advances in diagnosis and treatment. Referring to research studies and their own experiences, the physicians discuss the characterization of depression, its relation to adult depressive disorders, its manifestations at various ages, its environmental and biological causes, and its psychosocial and pharmacological treatment. The authors also address the practical and troubling issues of suicide, at-risk kids, dealing with a depressed child, and preventive measures and vigorous treatment. They summarize new research in genetics and neuroimaging, acknowledging trends toward greater understanding and more effective treatment. Based on their 1983 Why Johnny Can't Cry, these authors reflect both the tremendous gain in knowledge about the disease as well as active concern for the care and future of all children who are depressed. A significant book for parents, educators, health professionals, and policy makers. Irene Wood --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
