Pediatric Behavioral Neurology

This book assembles for the first time information required for the recognition understanding and treatment of behavioral problems resulting from neurological conditions. Its focus is two-pronged: 1) on conditions where cognitive-behavioral manifestations are major symptoms such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder autism and developmental language disorder; and 2) on conditions where these symptoms are significant but secondary such as brain tumors epilepsy and AIDS. This multi-authored guide also outlines effective behavioral therapy approaches to these conditions. It is comprehensive yet concise and easy to use.
