“This book should become a key textbook of choice for a wide range of health care professionals and students. It encourages
autonomous learning and helps develop critical analytical skills …
Each chapter follows a logical progression using key objectives which relate to a range of activities and up to date
evidenced based sources of information. The range of depth and breadth of material is contemporary and as such should meet the academic, managerial and clinical background of the reader.”
Helen Matthews, Senior Lecturer in Health and Community Care, University of West London, UK
"This book is a fantastic tool for students, CAMHS Practitioners who are new in the field, and professionals from partner agencies. It provides a comprehensive overview of CAMHS. This book is very informative and easy to read. Not only does it further CAMHS knowledge, but poses excellent questions to the reader in order to encourage reflection on practice. I would recommend this book highly to anybody who would like to further their knowledge and understanding of CAMHS as I believe it is an invaluable resource."
