Amazon.com: Anxiety Disorders in Children and Adolescents, Second Edition: Tracy L. Morris PhD, John S. March MD MPH: Books

Review
"There’s a reason this book is in its second edition! The first volume, and now the second, contain impressive, scholarly reviews of the various foundations, assessments, and treatments for anxiety disorders in youth. Morris and March have gathered recognized experts to provide up-to-date information in an easy-to-read format and style. A valuable, evidence-oriented resource for professionals and graduate students, this book merits a place on the shelf--or on the desk, since it will be referred to frequently--of any mental health professional working with anxiety disorders in youth."--Philip C. Kendall, PhD, ABPP, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Psychology, Temple University

"This second edition reflects the rapid change in our knowledge of child and adolescent anxiety disorders. Practitioners, students, and instructors will want to immerse themselves completely and dive deeply for the many pearls in every chapter. Particularly valuable for practitioners is the second edition's evidence-based approach to combined medication and psychosocial treatments."--John H. Greist, MD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin Medical School

Greist, MD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin Medical School

"A good text for a psychiatry or family practice residency or for knowledgeable psychologists, whether in training or not, with an interest in the biological base of anxiety and its neuropsychiatric underpinnings, who also wish to stay informed regarding psychopharmacological management. For psychologists working within a medical setting such as hospital-based research and treatment facilities, or with those with an advanced interest in behavioral medicine, this will be a valuable addiction to their psychotherapeutic library...It is a good value."--Child & Family Behavior Therapy

"...provides an excellent overview of child anxiety, focusing on treatment issues....meets all criteria for a 'must have' text on child anxiety. The book covers the basics of child anxiety disorders and their treatment comprehensively but concisely, making it seemingly ideal for most audiences, from advanced researchers to beginning graduate students and from master clinicians to starting therapists....highly recommended, including for readers who already own the first edition."--APA PsycCRITIQUES

"...a very comprehensive review of the literature....an extremely useful reference book, which will hold great appeal to clinicians, practitioners and researchers. It is highly suitable to either dip into, or to read more systematically....This is an excellent reference book for libraries and will also be welcomed by practitioners wishing to develop an in-depth understanding of anxiety disorders in children and adolescents."--Children Now

"...the chapter authors include a Who's Who in the anxiety field....I personally will continue to use it to bring my mind into focus as to the essential tasks I need to accomplish as a therapist as I sit in front of a child or family that sometimes is presenting me more information than I can sort out. It assists me in sorting through to the essential information in the case and to focus my attention of what we all must accomplish together."--anxieties.com

"An up-to-date, data rich text that outlined the current boundaries of knowledge for anxiety disorders in children....I would certainly recommend this both for the specialist consultant and for residents in training."--The Canadian Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Review

"A welcome addition to the literature and will provide an essential reference book for anyone engaged in working with or researching anxiety disorders in young people....A very readable and scholarly book, which would be of great interest to clinicians and researchers as well as students of child development, psychiatry, psychology and other disciplines involved with the understanding and treatment of mental health disorders in children and adolescents."--Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Book Reviews

"The true strength of this book is how focused the editors have been in keeping each chapter concise while still rich in content. That selection truly pays off and the end result is a very concise, yet comprehensive book about etiology, assessment, and treatment of children and adolescents with anxiety disorders. I strongly recommend this book to clinicians and researchers interested in the complex presentation and treatment of pediatric anxiety."--Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic
