About the Book

Treating a child or adolescent with ADHD is especially challenging when hyperactivity and inattention are accompanied by many other symptoms. It is not uncommon to encounter such complex ADHD cases as the child who also presents with aggression or antisocial behavior, the teen who has made a suicide attempt, or the hyperactive child with mental retardation. Integrating the latest biomedical and psychosocial knowledge, this practice-oriented volume is designed to help clinicians meet the needs of these tough-to-treat clients. Major comorbidities are described in depth and empirically grounded guidelines are presented for evaluation and treatment. Filled with illustrative case examples and pointers to facilitate time- and cost-effective practice, this book will enhance the work of clinicians and students in a range of settings.

Review :
'Given the high rate of comorbidity in children with ADHD, this text is essential reading for anyone working in this area. Pliszka and colleagues have provided valuable information for those struggling to develop effective interventions for the most challenging clinical presentations of ADHD.' - Behaviour Research and Therapy 'Informative, authoritative, thoughtful, and scholarly....The authors serve up the most encyclopedic, well-informed review of pediatric psychopharmacology that I have read in a long time....Rather than describing idealized patients, Pliszka and his colleagues present children who fail the 'easy' treatments, and who only start mending after they have been taken all the way through the authors' logical treatment algorithms. Run, don't walk, to get this book-you shouldn't practice child psychiatry without it!' - Laurence Greenhill, MD 'The field has long awaited a book of this kind, that integrates up-to-date research data on conditions co-occurring with ADHD with a systematic approach to treatment. The authors' rich accumulated clinical wisdom comes through in a variety of informative practice recommendations and guidelines throughout each section, with a balance of approaches that is rare. This text should be invaluable to a broad audience of child researchers and clinicians-child psychologists, child psychiatrists, pediatricians, pediatric neurologists-as well as forming an excellent framework for review of ADHD comorbidity for trainees.' - James T. McCracken, MD 'Given the high rate of comorbidity in children with ADHD, this text is essential reading for anyone working in this area. Pliszka and colleagues have provided valuable information for those struggling to develop effective interventions for the most challenging clinical presentations of ADHD.'- Behaviour Research and Therapy
