Reviews for Adolescent Psychosis: Clinical and Scientific Perspectives

"*4 stars* ""...provides a comprehensive overview of psychotic disorders that develop in children and adolescents before the age of 18, known as early-onset psychosis. With the recent concerning increase in the incidence of psychotic disorders between 13 and 18 years of age, this timely and needed textbook appropriately provides a comprehensive understanding of early onset psychotic disorders based on current research findings. Anyone who engages in the care of children and adolescents would benefit from this book, especially given the variety of early onset psychotic disorders manifestations. Primary care providers, therapists, and psychiatrists who engage in treatment modalities will find this book particularly helpful."" --©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Aaron John Plattner, MD (Network180)"
