* numerous checklists and other instruments for use inassessments
* four chapters on intervention and treatments, with a particularfocus on multidisciplinary approaches
* a comprehensive literature review alongside original researchdata
* case studies drawn from the author's lengthy clinicalexperience
This book is essential reading for social workers, health visitors,nurses, pediatricians, psychologists and child care workers.
