Product Description
In this work, figures in the field of childhood aggression share what is known about the cultural, biological and psychological roots of violence and develop intervention strategies to deal with the needs of young people. Coverage includes clinical assessment and treatment of children with inappropriate aggressive behaviour; socioenvironmental factors that contribute to inappropriate aggressive behaviour; behavioural and neurobiological consequences of environmental and emotional insults; neurochemical control of aggression and the moral and ethical implications of psychopharmacology in children; and psychosocial intervention strategies for helping children who are excessively aggressive.

Understanding Aggressive Behavior in Children addresses this complex theme in a forthright and understandable manner. Certainly written with the professional clinician as the primary intended audience, yet clearly digestible for the seasoned psychiatric consumer recipient(and concerned family members, etc.) Where does the madness come from? What are its consequences? And, what might the future hold? The author answers these questions, and fills in the assorted "gaps," accordingly. This book is a "must read" for those individuals with hopes of enhancing their understanding of the dynamics at hand!
