"Overall, this is a fantastic resource for anyone that assesses behaviour in children and adolescents.

A clearly well researched and thought through book that would be valuable on the bookshelf or computer of any health professionals that work with children (the review copy has already been borrowed by colleagues and purchased as a leaving present). In particular the handbook would be relevant for child and adolescent psychiatrists, clinical and educational psychologists, paediatricians and CAMHS professionals both working long-term within the field or whilst still in training.
