Description: This original and powerful book illuminates a perennially controversial subject via detailed case histories of 54 children with schizophrenia. The book begins with a review of 130 years of the psychiatric literature on psychosis in childhood. Cantor then presents a detailed analysis of the developmental and family histories of the children in her study, comparing some of the data to a non-schizophrenic control group and yielding suggestive insights on the roots of vulnerability to mental illness.The difficulties involved in assessment and treatment are examined in depth, and useful diagnostic methods are discussed. Also presented are ideas and tools for monitoring change in the child's clinical state and evaluating the effectiveness of interventions.
