Handbook of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Beschreibung

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the mostprevalent childhood psychiatric disorders of our time. Thecondition is defined by levels of inattention, hyperactivity andimpulsivity that are in impairing and developmentallyinappropriate. Increasingly, there is a growing appreciation thatfor many individuals the disorder may persist into adulthood and beassociated with significant social and economic burden. Conditions, such as ADHD, that are manifestly heterogeneous interms of their clinical presentation, underlying neurobiology andtreatment response, must be tackled on multiple fronts. ThisHandbook of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder provides astate of the art position on each of these fronts from leadingclinicians and researchers from around the world. Broad in itsscope and comprehensive in its detail, this book should be asuseful to the student as it is to the experienced clinician orresearcher.
