be involved in the publication of review articles, development his
own research project in the field of pharmacogenomics, and frequent
involvement in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching.
If a concise introduction to child and adolescent psychiatry is
what you are looking for, then here it is. This is a reliable and
up-to-date guide, encompassing what one must acknowledge is
becoming a dauntingly large amount of new research and clinical
evidence. Also, it is refreshing to have a brief history of child
and adolescent psychiatry in a practical clinical compendium... I
would recommend this book to anyone starting in the field and, I
have no doubt, will benefit from its use myself.
*The British Journal of Psychiatry*
It is indeed amazing how the authors managed to compress this
wealth of information into an easy-to-read 470 page
handbook...stands out as a highly relevant contribution to the
training and practice of child and adolescent psychiatry in the
UK.
