Linda Wilmshurst, "Abnormal Child Psychology: A Developmental Perspective"

"I would recommend this book for publication. I would use a book like this for a child psychopathology or a developmental psychopathology course at the advance undergraduate or introductory graduate level. I would be more likely, however, to use it as a supplemental text for the child psychopathology class." - "Carlos F. Pozzi, Assistant Professor of Psychology, Wheaton College, USA"

"Linda Wilmhurst has uniquely presented the information of abnormal behavior in child and adolescents in a refreshing way. Although the material can be found in many different places, Wilmhurst has integrated the material so that students can understand the complexity of the field and that there are many facets of the issues that must be explored when explaining abnormal development in children and adolescents!.This work clearly relates the material in the field by gathering salient concepts and information and presenting it within a developmental contextual frame so that a novice could process the information easier. I think this book would compete most closely with the text by Mash and Wolfe 3rd Ed. But I think Wilmhurst's approach is significantly more integrated and more understandable for a student who is unfamiliar with the theoretical and developmental context of psychopathology!The K3 paradigm is an excellent pedagogical tool to facilitate content integration!I strongly recommend this book for publication." - "Suzanne Morin, Associate Professor of Psychology, Shippensburg University, USA"

"This text is particularly appealing in its presentation of developmental problems on a continuum, that is, distinguishing 'normal' variations of development from mild impairment from more severe impairment!its unique contribution is in the presentation of case examples along the continuum of normal to abnormal!an excellent tool in helping students understand the broader context of children's behavioral disorders and in helping students distinguish garden variety behavior problems from more severe disorders." - "Elizabeth Soliday, Associate Professor, Department of Psychology, Washington State University at Vancouver, Canada"

The text was also reviewed by Carrie Scherzer and David Boulifard. Both agreed that the book would be improved by organizational changes, particularly an earlier inclusion of materials on ethnic and cultural diversity. Wilmhurst has responded positively to reviews and has agreed to make several changes following their suggestions.
