Review :
From reviews of the first edition: 'A set of excellent contributors, drawn from around the world, provide generally excellent reviews and updates for this volume ... this is an excellent and current overview that will be of interest to practitioners and investigators alike.' The American Journal of Psychiatry 'The multidisciplinary approach is central to work in this field. This book confirms that it is enjoyable and exciting. ... Each of the 26 chapters is a gem ... I strongly recommend this as a book that should be browsed through by anyone involved in this work.' Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines 'In conclusion, the Bouras volume presents an excellent resource for students and professionals on the topic. The chapters are well-written, and have the distinctive advantage of dealing with the complex issues of dual diagnosis from diverse perspectives.' American Journal of Mental Retardation 'We recommend this book to clinical professionals, postgraduate students, service managers and researchers involved in meeting the mental health needs of people with learning disabilities. ... The book should be a necessary purchase ...' Psychological Medicine '... this book is comprehensive, well-structured and clear. ... An overwhelming strength is that the information provided is based on relevant, recent research and is presented from a bio-psycho-social perspective.
