About this title

Review:

'Those who already own the second edition of this classic resource will find ample reason to upgrade to the third, and students and younger practitioners coming to the Handbook for the first time will enjoy the most comprehensive coverage of clinically applicable information about ADHD available in a single, scholarly source.' - Joel Nigg, PhD, Department of Psychology, Michigan State University, USA

'The Handbook remains the essential ADHD reference for clinicians, educators, and investigators... Lucid descriptions of assessment methods, diagnosis, and integrated treatments establish a foundation both for contemporary clinical practice and for future research inquiry. The newly organized Key Clinical Points in each chapter, combined with comprehensive reference lists, ensure that the richness of content is both comprehensive and accessible.' - James J. McGough, MD, Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, UCLA School of Medicine, USA
