Recenzje

Organization makes sense, and including some examples at the end of how to apply the information would be particularly important, especially for less experienced readers. I think what is unique about the volume is its focus on integrating child mental health assessment methods into primary care settings, which are different from typical psychology/psychiatry office practice. I’m sure there are practical challenges to doing this effectively and efficiently, so that the children, the families, and the primary care practitioners benefit without compromising the integrity of the assessment too much. Contributors should be encouraged to focus on how to address these challenges. Katharina Manassis, MD Emeritus Professor, University of Toronto Medical Center
