In recent decades, mental health agencies have increased their demand for therapists to work exclusively with children and adolescents. For that reason, child and adolescents treatment has been gaining attention among psychologist and researchers. Schools and universities offer child and adolescents diagnosis and treatment classes in order to train students to work with two particular populations. It is not difficult to find literature addressing the topic of therapy with children and adolescents.When one decides to study or learn more about such a delicate subject, as it is diagnosing and treating children and adolescents, there is always a need for obtaining the best literature available in the market. SAGE Publications offers quality books on the subject of psychology. Introduction to Abnormal Child and Adolescent Psychology, by Robert Weis, (SAGE, 2013), is perhaps the most complete book on the subject of therapy for children and adolescents. What makes this book unique?First and most important, the thoroughness shown by Weis in every single sentence makes this book an excellent resource for both students and practitioners. He writes from a professional perspective (he is a licensed counselor and professor). His knowledge of the subject and expertise are evidenced from the first page to the last one. The author highlights the peculiarities and individual needs children and adolescents present, as these distinctions are crucial aspects that affect diagnosis and treatments.Secondly, this is not just a theory and informative book. This volume includes case study sections where students and readers are introduced to stories addressing the topic under subject.
