Synopsis:
Updated to account for the latest research and advances in the field, this third edition of Dulcan's Textbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry reinforces its status as an indispensable resource for clinicians working with young patients and their families. An expanded chapter on telehealth features insights on e-mental health options that support both mental health clinicians and primary care providers. Two completely new chapters on pediatric consultation liaison psychiatry provide clinical guidance in treating medically ill children and those seen in primary care. Readers will find all of the in-depth, DSM-5-aligned evidence-based clinical guidance they have come to expect from Dulcan's Textbook in such areas as neurodevelopmental and other psychiatric disorders and disorders affecting somatic function; multiple approaches to psychosocial treatments; the principles of pediatric psychopharmacology and use of the medications; and special topics, including cultural and religious considerations, youth suicide, legal and ethical issues, and gender and sexual diversity. With summary points for each chapter, a wealth of references, and a reader-friendly layout, this new edition of Dulcan's Textbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry offers clinicians the information they need to keep up to date and practice more effectively.
