Entirely revised, rewritten and augmented with 11 completely new chapters, this new edition builds strongly on the aims of the previous edition to provide the latest scientific validation of cognitive behaviour therapy with practical treatment guidance for clinical child psychologists and psychiatrists working with disturbed children. Coverage ranges broadly from school refusal and adjustment to parental divorce through eating and sleeping disorders to substance abuse. It will be invaluable to clinicians wanting to provide ever more effective psychological treatment for children and families.From a review of the first edition: ' ... clearly written by a number of international authorities in the field. ...

'… recognising the growth of knowledge and importance of the topics covered, I have certainly come down strongly in favour of this book, and it easily passes the test in being an important addition to the literature.'

'This extensively updated second edition is very welcome and I know it was eagerly awaited by CBT practitioners. I really do like the balance of theory, evidence for theory and practice, practice tips and worked examples showing how to apply the treatment in real life. … I highly recommend this book, to any student, be they new to the field or experienced practitioners of child and adolescent mental health who want a grasp of contemporary CBT in CAMHS. It is a worthy successor to the first edition and should become a core text in most clinic libraries.'
