This book is a case-based introduction to pediatric neuropsychiatry that reflects real-world clinical care of children and adolescents with complex neuropsychiatric disorders. Adult neuropsychiatry is well-established, but accessible references and available practitioners knowledgeable in pediatric neuropsychiatry are still rare. In every community, there are children and adolescents experiencing challenging neuropsychiatric conditions; they and their caregivers often struggle to find professionals well-educated in this field. This text helps to fill that gap and move the field forward.
This drastically expanded second edition includes more than twenty new chapters, in addition to extensively updated existing chapters, and covers topics that were not included in the first edition, such as cerebral palsy, Down syndrome regression disorder, mitochondrial disorders, and pediatric neurodegenerative diseases. Several chapters focusing on the pediatric neuropsychiatric examination have also been added. While the basic neuropsychiatric examination chapter in the first edition was very popular, the field has advanced to the degree that additional chapters on neuropsychological assessment and on hospital neuropsychiatry have been added.
