Hyperactivity is a chronic disorder which accounts for almost 50% of the consultations carried out within child and adolescent psychiatry. It is also possibly one of the disorders that has generated the most attention, caused the most concern and been a subject of study for many years among educators, parents and specialists. This disorder interferes in many areas of normal functioning and is responsible for a multitude of disturbances and difficulties that seriously affect evolutionary development, schooling and the social and family life of the children and adolescents who suffer from it. In 50% to 80% of cases hyperactivity persists in adulthood. This didactic material provides an introduction to the disorder, how to diagnose, assess and treat it. It also provides various strategies and resources for dealing with the problem. Ideaspropias Editorial has published this handguide to provide parents and educators with a set of guidelines for treatment.

There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.
