Cambridge University Press A Clinicians Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Book SynopsisThis authoritative 2006 clinical handbook provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of the main disorders encountered by child and adolescent psychiatrists. Coverage is based on ICD-10 and DSM-IV classifications. Emphasis is on good clinical practice and quality of patient care and appendices include documents for assessment of intervention planning and evaluation.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'This substantial textbook, edited by well-known academics and clinicians, certainly provides a comprehensive guide to all the common disorders that clinicians working within child and adolescent mental health services are likely to encounter … I have enjoyed reading it and will undoubtedly use it. It is also a good resource for teaching medical students about the neurobiology underpinning schizophrenia or for an overview of the prodrome.' British Journal of PsychiatryReview of the hardback: '… [I] have enjoyed this book. It is clear that the ethos of the authors is multidisciplinary and inclusive of parents, carers, schools and social care in the management of children and adolescents with disorders … I felt I could translate what the author was describing into my daily clinical experience … The tables and diagrams are ideal for the busy clinician, they are clear and informative … I think this speaks for the utility of the book, as it is intended to be a synthesis, a 'desk book' for clinicians, and I think it succeeds very well indeed. For this reason I strongly recommend it.' Psychological MedicineReview of the hardback: 'I was delighted to review the book. It is an easy to read, comprehensive and enjoyable resource which will be well received by those concerned with the mental health of children and their families.'

Cambridge University Press Neurobehavioral Manifestations of PraderWilli
Book SynopsisA practical guidebook providing a case-based approach to neurobehavioral problems in people with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). Includes extensive treatment plans and covers a range of issues such as anxiety, skin-picking, ADHD, disruptive behavior, mood disorders, and psychosis. A must-read for clinicians and caregivers helping individuals with PWS.Trade Review'Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is more than just a rare genetic disorder. It is a complex syndrome with many challenging symptoms. Dr Singh not only names and describes these symptoms, he also provides practical recommendations for managing them. This book covers the spectrum of common behavioral problems seen in PWS in terms and language people without medical training can understand, and it delves deeper into the neuro-behavioral manifestations aimed at medical professionals who will care for patients with PWS. This book is a great reference tool for everyone from families who have just received their diagnosis to caregivers of older children experiencing many of these behaviors to medical professionals who will counsel these patients, parents and caregivers.' Paige Rivard, MBA, CEO Prader-Willi Syndrome Association, USA'The Neuro-behavioral Manifestations of Prader-Willi Syndrome provides an in-depth look at those aspects of PWS that families struggle with every day. From anxiety to behavioral outbursts to frank mental illness, Dr Singh and colleagues provide insight and a holistic approach to managing some of the most difficult aspects of the syndrome. The chapters are written with sufficient detail to be highly informative for clinicians and health care providers who wish to become more knowledgeable about PWS, while the 'Note to Caregiver' section in each chapter will be particularly helpful for families. This book is bound to be an important and well-used resource for anyone caring for a person with PWS.' Theresa V. Strong, Ph.D., Director of Research Programs, Foundation for Prader-Willi Research'In this book, Dr Deepan Singh, along with other contributors, has set out his perspective as a psychiatrist seeing people with PWS in the context of the American health system. I admire his commitment seeking to cover this complex area in these 15 chapters, which range widely in their content including topics as diverse as caregiver burden and the neurobiology of PWS. Importantly, Dr Singh draws upon particular areas of psychiatric knowledge applying them to our understanding of PWS.'
