Reviews
“This book is destined to become the standard reference on anxiety disorders as they manifest in childhood. The editors, McKay and Storch, are authorities on childhood anxiety and have done a masterful job editing a large volume of work, creating a book that is both comprehensive and accessible – to clinicians, students and researchers.”

“McKay and Storch have brought together a who’s who of the leading researchers and clinicians to provide a comprehensive overview of child anxiety disorders. Authors provide state-of-the art information on a wide-variety of topics including assessment, CBT, family and psychopharmacological treatments, and anxiety in developmentally disabled and chronic health impaired youngsters. This book is an invaluable guide to clinicians, researchers, students, and others working with anxious youth and their families.”
