Personality Disorders In Children And

In the first book to argue that neurotic, psychotic, and borderline personality disorders can be identified, diagnosed, and treated even in the young, a renowned child psychiatrist marshalls her developmental perspective and adduces clinical evidence to support it. Kernberg and her colleagues elucidate assessment criteria and advance therapeutic approaches for each disorder.

Paulina F. Kernberg, M.D., is Professor of Psychiatry at Cornell University Medical College and Director of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Residency Training Program at The New York Presbyterian Hospital - Westchester Division.
