This important volume comprehensively explores the development of psychiatric disorders in 2- to 6-year-olds, detailing how the growing empirical knowledge base may lead to improved interventions for young children and their families. Leading contributors examine advances in the conceptualization and diagnosis of early-onset disruptive disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, eating and sleeping disorders, autism, and other clinical problems. Promising treatment strategies are described, including developmentally specific behavioral and play therapies, and available evidence for their effectiveness is presented. The literature on preschool psychopharmacology is also reviewed. Throughout, the discussion is grounded in the many recent advances on normative developmental processes in the preschool period.

'In recent years, increased attention has been paid to identifying and understanding mental health problems in preschoolers. This superb volume is a strong testament to the advances that have occurred in both research knowledge and clinical practice. The work represented in this exciting volume will stimulate further growth in our comprehension and treatment of high-risk youngsters. This timely and important volume belongs in the libraries of graduate students and professionals in the fields of clinical psychology, developmental psychopathology, pediatrics, and psychiatry.' - Dante Cicchetti, PhD, Institute of Child Development and Department of Psychiatry, University of Minnesota, USA
'This book is a gold mine for professionals working in the burgeoning field of preschool mental health! Beginning with a rich overview of normative social, emotional, and cognitive development, the book continues with state-of-the-science chapters on the signs, symptoms, and probable causes of mental disorders that arise in the early years. Within a solid developmental framework that acknowledges the multiple forces that shape children's mental health, leading researchers and clinicians shine light on proven and promising practices in assessment and intervention, as well as unanswered questions and current controversies. My hope is that this excellent resource will be used not only by mental health practitioners, but also by the policymakers who determine whether or not young children and their families get the help they need in order to develop optimal mental health.' - Martha Farrell Erickson, PhD, Harris Programs, Center for Early Education and Development, University of Minnesota, USA
