Product Description

Depression is often underidentified in children. As a result, many go undiagnosed and suffer needlessly. The Childhood Depression Sourcebook provides insight into why children get depressed, how to identify symptoms, and where to find appropriate treatment. Dr. Miller distinguishes how childhood depression differs from adult depression and how depression manifests during different developmental stages: early childhood, late childhood, and adolescence. This unique book also emphasizes working with schools on both the academic and social level to help children adjust.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Information and and easy style to understand!, December 10, 1999

Mr. Miller has a teriffic sense for being honest and getting right to the medical point. I appreciate his way of breaking-down the information into subchapters that is easily understood. A great tool in observing the depressive behaviors in children.
