Description As more and more general psychiatrists are being asked to see pediatric patients, this issue will provide a valuable update on some of
the most important areas of child psychiatry. Articles discuss such topics as Neurodevelopmental formulation, Cultural issues, Prodromal
interventions in psychotic disorders, Autism, Early onset bipolar disorder, ADHD, Anxiety disorders and PTSD, Genetic Syndrome, Consultation
to schools, forensics and PCPs, Psychopharmacology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Future directions. Experts in child psychiatry
write each article specifically for the generalist who does not primarily see children and adolescents, but occasionally or even often
does.
