HANDBOOK OF DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOPATHOLOGY

The Third
Edition of the Handbook of Developmental Psychopathology incorporates these research advances throughout its comprehensive, up-to-date examination of this diverse and maturing field.
Integrative state-of-the-art models document the complex interplay of risk and protective factors and other variables contributing to normal and pathological development. New and updated chapters describe current
refinements in assessment methods and offer the latest research findings from neuroscience. In addition, the Third Edition provides readers with a detailed review across the spectrum of salient topics, from the effects of
early deprivation to the impact of puberty.

As the field continues to shift from traditional symptom-based concepts of pathology to a contemporary, dynamic paradigm, the Third Edition addresses such
key topics as:

• Early childhood disorders, including failure to thrive and attachment disorders.
• Aggression, ADHD, and other disruptive
  conditions.
• Developmental models of depression, anxiety, self-injury/suicide, and OCD.
• The autism spectrum and other chronic developmental disorders.
• Substance abuse,
  eating, and other disorders of control.
• Child maltreatment and trauma disorders.

The Third Edition of the Handbook of Developmental Psychopathology
is a discipline-defining, forward-looking resource for researchers, clinicians, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in such fields as developmental psychology, psychiatry, social work, child and school psychology,
educational psychology, and pediatrics.
