Principles of Pediatric Neuropsychiatry through Complex Clinical Cases 1st Edition

Principles of Pediatric Neuropsychiatry through Complex Clinical Cases, 1st Edition by Ayol Samuels; David Myland Kaufman; Audrey Walker offers a compelling, case-driven roadmap for clinicians confronting the most challenging intersections of neurology and psychiatry in children and adolescents. Vivid clinical vignettes draw you in immediately, presenting realistic diagnostic puzzles that sharpen reasoning and mirror everyday practice in hospitals and outpatient clinics.

Each chapter unfolds a carefully chosen case—covering epilepsy-related behavioral change, neurodevelopmental disorders, movement and tic disorders, mood and anxiety presentations with neurological comorbidity, and neurogenetic conditions—followed by stepwise analysis of assessment, differential diagnosis, investigations, and management strategies. The narrative balances evidence-based guidance with pragmatic clinical pearls, emphasizing multidisciplinary collaboration among neurologists, psychiatrists, pediatricians, psychologists, and allied professionals.

This book is designed to enhance diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic confidence. Readers will find practical frameworks for integrating neuroimaging, genetics, psychopharmacology, and psychotherapeutic options, and for tailoring care to the developmental needs of children and families. Written in a clear, authoritative voice, it is equally useful for trainees, child and adolescent psychiatrists, pediatric neurologists, and multidisciplinary teams seeking updated, case-focused learning.

Ideal for clinical reference and professional development, this first edition stands out as a modern resource for pediatric neuropsychiatry education across the US, UK, Europe, and beyond. Whether building a departmental library or preparing for complex consultations, clinicians will appreciate the book’s relevance, clarity, and clinical utility. Add this essential volume to your collection to elevate patient care and clinical decision-making in pediatric neurology and psychiatry.
