Review:
'A major accomplishment. Campbell's comprehensive conceptual and theoretical framework will help readers gain a better understanding of what is a pressing national problem - the identification, prevention, and treatment of young children's social, emotional, and behavioral problems... The volume does a wonderful job of bringing in real-life examples to anchor the discussion of complex issues.' - Robert C. Pianta, PhD, Curry Programs in Clinical and School Psychology, University of Virginia, USA

'This is an essential resource for anyone working with children - from child clinicians to preschool and elementary school teachers - as well as serious students of human development. Campbell provides accurate and balanced coverage of what is known about early development; helps us understand why young children have behavior problems; and shares illustrative findings from her own longitudinal studies. Impressively, the volume will be highly informative to psychology researchers and graduate students while remaining accessible to undergraduates and readers in other fields.' - John Coie, PhD, Department of Psychology: Social and Health Sciences, Duke University, USA

Table of contents:

Peer Relationships and Young Children's Development. Prevention and Treatment of Behavior Problems in Young Children. Follow-Up and Outcome Studies of Young Children.

This volume provides a comprehensive clinicaldevelopmental framework for understanding and treating behavior problems in early childhood. Susan B. Campbell offers a highly readable account of the developmental tasks and transitions that young children face in cognitive, social, and family domains, and examines why and what happens when development goes awry. Particular attention is given to the critical question of how certain children manage to successfully overcome difficult transitions, while others face the risk of serious, ongoing problems. Empirically supported prevention and treatment approaches are reviewed, and concrete recommendations are offered for improving the quality and availability of child care and early intervention programs.

This volume provides a comprehensive clinicaldevelopmental framework for understanding and treating behavior problems in early childhood.
