to Shopping CartThe authors detail early-onset bipolar disorder, discuss the diagnosis, explain treatment and medications, and advise parents about ways to advocate effectively for their children in school. This third edition includes a greatly expanded education chapter that describes the changes in educational law due to the 2004 reauthorization of IDEA. The book also addresses special concerns of teenagers, hospitalization, neuropsychological testing, promising new drugs, the impact of the illness on the family, and the world of insurance. The Bipolar Child is rich with the voices of parents, siblings, and the children themselves, opening up the long-closed world of the families struggling with this condition. This book has already proved to be an invaluable resource for parents whose children suffer from mood disorders, as well as for the professionals who treat and educate them, and this new edition is sure to continue to light the way. |
