Description
Accessible and clearly written, Developmental Psychopathology, 4/e, is designed to be challenging to students rather than being "dumbed down" for them. Presenting a balance of perspectives, including the behavioral, psychodynamic, cognitive, and family systems, the authors provide a rich, thought-provoking, and integrative view of developmental psychopathology. In this new edition, a consistent organizational scheme is used in each chapter, and the research is up-to-date, including particular attention to important new emerging themes such as attachment, neurobiological models, and peer relations.
