The Handbook of Infant, Toddler, and Preschool Mental Health Assessment brings together, for the first time, leading clinical researchers to provide empirically based recommendations for assessment of social-emotional and behavior problems and disorders in the earliest years. Each author presents state-of-the-art information on scientifically valid, developmentally based clinical assessments and makes recommendations based on the integration of developmental theory, empirical findings, and clinical experience. Though the field of mental health assessment in infants and young children lags behind work with older children and adults, recent scientific advances, including new measures and diagnostic approaches, have led to dramatic growth in the field. The editors of this exciting new work have assembled an extraordinary collection of chapters that thoroughly discuss the conceptualizations of dysfunction in infants and young children, current and new diagnostic criteria, and such specific disorders as sensory modulation dysfunction, sleep disorders, eating and feeding disorders, autistic spectrum disorders, anxiety disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder, and ADHD. Chapters further highlight the importance of incorporating contextual factors such as parent-child relationship functioning and cultural background into the assessment process to increase the validity of findings. Given the comprehensiveness of this groundbreaking volume in reviewing conceptual, methodological, and research advances on early identification, diagnosis, and clinical assessment of disorders in this young age group, it will be an ideal resource for teachers, researchers, and a wide variety clinicians including child psychologists, child psychiatrists, early intervention providers, early special educators, social workers, family physicians, and pediatricians.

THE COMPLETE BABY & CHILD CARE HANDBOOK For more than four decades, parents worldwide have referred to Marina's book as their 'baby bible'.

'It is my sincere conviction that parents of all shades and creeds share a common bond: that of wanting the best for their children. It is also the right of every child to be raised with enough care to nurture mind, body and soul; so that each will grow up with the good sense of self-worth and a chance to realise their full potential.' MARINA PETROPULOS 'Marina highlights that each child is an individual, so we as parents get to know them in order to provide their particular needs. There is no single right way and Marina is very clear that we have to trust our knowledge of our particular children in order to help them grow up to be adults who can negotiate their way in life. This is a book to have always on one's bedside table!' Dr ALAN WOOD, Medical Journal. 'This book is a veritable one-stop knowledge shop... Not only does it seem to cover every single, solitary, freaky, benign, apparently stupid or incredibly bright question a fuzzy-headed mother might find herself asking, but it does so in a calm, credible, non-judgemental and non-patronising tone... there are also the more tricky topics like the hopes we have for our children, and - very sensitively and sensibly dealt with - the issue of discipline... particularly useful are the handy grids to illnesses, their symptoms and when to see a doctor... ' KAREN SCHIMKE 'This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive and reliable, factual advice and help for parents and parents-to-be. I unreservedly recommend it.' DR JOHN PEARN, Royal Children's' Hospital, Australia. 'This book read beautifully - it is light, yet serious and thorough and up-to-date. A really marvellous guide and source of excellent information.' Professor Astrid Berg, MB ChB, FC Psych (SA), MPhil (Child & Adolescent Psychiatry). Professor Berg is on the Board of Directors of the World Association for Infant Mental Health. 'This book could be the best investment parents ever make...' SUNDAY TIMES. Curious?

This evidence-based, practical guide provides an introduction to the theory behind child nutrition with practical advice on how to put that theory into practice, including case studies, key points, and activities to help readers learn. Divided into three sections, the chapters cover prenatal nutrition and nutrition throughout childhood from preterm babies to adolescents up to the age of 18. Section 1: Introduction to the growth, nutrients, and food groups. Section 2: Providing a balanced eating pattern for each age group, chapters include expected growth patterns, development affecting eating and drinking skills, as well as common problems such as reflux in babies, fussy eaters in the toddler years, and eating disorders and pregnancy in the teenage years. Section 3: Common problems/disorders that can occur at any stage throughout childhood such as obesity, diabetes, and food intolerances. Chapters will also cover nutritional support in the community, reflecting the increasing numbers of chronically sick children who are now managed in the primary care setting. This book is essential reading for nutrition and dietetics students, as well as student children's nurses and health and social care students. It will also be a useful reference for those responsible for the nutritional health of children in primary care and community settings (including nurses, midwives, health visitors, GPs, social workers, nursery nurses, early years workers, and school nurses).
