From the book reviews: "The audience includes child and adolescent psychiatrists, psychotherapists, psychologists, pediatricians, general practitioners, nurses, and students of medicine and pharmacology. Mental health workers, social workers, and teachers working with children and adolescents with mental illness also could use it as a reference. ... With its research-based, current information, it is a very useful tool for practitioners in the U.S. and Europe." (Rosario M. Cosme, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2014)
