Description
Book SynopsisThe book reviews research and clinical observations on this timely topic. The authors look at attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder, all of which are common among youths and often share similar symptoms of impulse control problems.
Trade ReviewIn this well-edited collection of up-to-date review articles, Hendren has assembled a 'panel-in-print' of outstanding researchers and clinicians. . . . Although a multiauthored volume, Disruptive Behavior Disorders in Children and Adolescents succeeds in providing thorough and readable chapters covering the terrains of biology, psychology and social forces—and how they impact these problems.
