Handbook of Infant Mental Health

Book was in great new shape and had no markings or highlighting. good quality and fast shipping!

Infant Mental Health Resource

This book was so thourough, covering everything from risk and protective factors, to intervention, assessment and psychopathology. I especially like the breakdown in the end of the cross-disciplinary training in infant mental health. Also the chapter on Early Chilhood Policy: Implications for mental health policy. We cannot look at children in isolated pockets of health. This book speaks to every step forward that we need to take to serve the social-emotional health of our children.

Essential reading for graduate students and professionals

This book represents a comprehensive discussion of factors that influence the social and emotional health of very young children, when it goes well and when it goes awry. Many of the chapters deal with specific disorders of infancy and early childhood and with intervention techniques. It is essential reading for graduate students as well as professionals interested in infant/toddler mental health.
