Summary: Great and efficient
Comment: This is a complete and conscientious manual for child and adolescent psychiatric diagnoses and protocals. It is adequately detailed and simple to navigate. Editorial comments are are brief and only applied to variations from past criteria or concepts. Spectrum disorders, for example- autistic and bi-polar receive more details. Several changes stand out; a personality diagnosis may be used for an adolescent; the return of the use of adjustment disorder, anti-social personality may only apply to adult functioning, and the continuous ambiguity of ODD. I will add my own frustrations with the academic disorders- they keep changing the name- which means very little to the practitioner. As a training guide it offers a concise and organized sequence that should be highly useful as an adjunt to internship experiences.
Included are lists of evaluations and short, published scales that I found useful and some elaboration on co-morbid conditions.
The authors prefer the Children's Manifest Anxiety and School Age Depression Inventory over more common ones.Instead of the GAF- they suggest the Children's Global Assesment Scale and that it is AXIS IV. It's a useful and slender volume that has many purposes.
