Abstract

This volume aims at covering key topical issues concerning developmental and behavioral problems in children and adolescents. The 29 state-of-the-art chapters covered by as many as 38 experts drawn from India and abroad attempt to review the depth and breadth of knowledge in the field of developmental and behavioral pediatrics with special reference to its applicability across the world. Each and every chapter is remarkable by its excellence, providing a stimulating and, not infrequently, even provocative, matured and informed update. Understandably, such an approach is befitting when the goal is not only to inform but also to motivate discussion, interaction, research and innovation. In keeping with the professed policy of the series, multidisciplinary approach with an eye on future continues to occupy pride of place in this volume too. Provides excellent state-of-the-art chapters in various aspects developmental and behavioral.
