An authoritative account of clinical and research applications of functional imaging techniques in child psychiatry.
Review of the hardback: 'This book will be of great use to doctors,
researchers and teachers and as it is known the brain does not
reach maturity until about the age of 20 it implies a maturing
concept … This very clear, current and rigourous work brings
psychiatry and neurology to its origins.' Dr J. M. Sala, European
Journal of Psychiatry
Review of the hardback: 'Every professional and novice in
functional neuroimaging will benefit from these authors' insightful
reflections on the caveats and dangers involved in interpreting
functional neruoimaging … Functional Neuroimaging in Child
Psychiatry is an interesting, informative and comprehensive
textbook on the subject; worthwhile reading for the lay reader, the
novice and the expert.' Cognitive Neuropsychiatry
