Introduction: historical landmarks in developmental neuropsychiatry. Part I Methods of Assessment and Investigation: assessment, interview, and behavior rating scales; genetic history; neuropsychological testing - assessing the mechanism of cognition and complex behavioral functioning; evaluation of brain structure and function. Part II Developmental Disorders: mental retardation; cerebral palsy; learning disorders; traumatic brain injury; pervasive developmental disorders. Part III Behavioral Phenotypes: cytogenetic and other genetic disorders associated with behavioral phenotypes; genetic metabolic disorders associated with behavioral phenotypes; behavioral toxicity/gestational substance abuse. Part IV Developmental Psychopathology: attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder; schizophrenia - a neurodevelopmental disorder, tourette's disorder, sleep disorders; destructive behavior - aggression and self-injury. Part V Treatment in Developmental Neuropsychiatry: psychotherapy in developmental disorders; behavior therapy; psychopharmacological interventions; counseling and treatment of genetic diseases.

| Summary, etc. |
James Harris's two volume work on developmental neuropsychiatry sets the agenda for this emerging clinical specialty. Written by an individual with the developmental expertise of a pediatrician, the behavioral sophistication of an adult and child psychiatrist, and a deep appreciation of neuroscience, these two books offer an integrated yet comprehensive approach to developmental neuropsychiatry. Grounded in neuroscience but enriched by clinical realities, Volume II provides a comprehensive review of the developmental neuropsychiatric disorders. Throughout the text current DSM-IV diagnostic criteria are provided. Part I outlines the diagnostic process and the genetic history, provides details on the conduct of neuropsychological testing, and offers a detailed review of brain imaging techniques, moving from CT and MRI scanning to the most recent developments in functional MRI and PET scanning. Part II discusses mental retardation, cerebral palsy, the learning disorders, the pervasive developmental disorders, and traumatic brain injury.Part III describes behavioral phenotypes in cytogenetic and other genetic disorders, genetic metabolic disorders, and disorders that result from gestational substance abuse. Part IV is devoted to developmental psychopathology and includes Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, Tourette's disorder, sleep disorders, and the syndromes of aggression and self-injury primarily occurring in mentally retarded persons. Part V covers treatment and includes detailed descriptions of psychotherapy, behavior therapy, pharmacological interventions, genetic counseling, and gene therapy. Finally, Part VI deals with legal and ethical issues as they pertain to developmentally disabled persons. |
