What People are Saying About This

Consuelo Cagande

Parikh's and Dulcan's Study Guide to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 3rd edition, is an excellent guide for residents, fellows, and practicing psychiatrists reviewing for Board examinations or Maintenance of Certification. Even if not reviewing for certification, the book is a great refresher and self-assessment resource for Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists. The questions are short and case-based. It contains up to date and evidence-based information on various topics, including treatments, that complement the textbook well. It is a good guide to add to your bookshelf.
