Full Description
Balancing developmental, clinical-diagnostic and experimental approaches to child and adolescent psychopathology, Mash/Wolfe/Nguyen Williams' CHILD PSYCHOPATHOLOGY, International Edition 8th Edition, is one of the most up-to-date, authoritative and comprehensive books in its market. The 8th Edition is organized to reflect DSM-5-TR categories, dimensional approaches to classification and evidence-based assessment and treatment approaches. The authors trace developmental pathways for each disorder and show how child and adolescent psychopathology involves biological, psychological and sociocultural factors interacting with a youth's environment. Case histories, examples, and first-person accounts illustrate the categorical and dimensional approaches used to describe disorders.
