What can be done at the beginning and throughout a child's life to maximize the likelihood that he or she will develop in a healthy way? That question serves as the foundation for this book. The theory, research, and prevention principles it presents go significantly beyond the more traditional mental health focus of diagnosis and repair of disorders, examining instead the enhancement of wellness of all children and adolescents. This volume is a lasting tribute to Emory L. Cowen's contributions to fostering the well-being of children.
