"David Freides has provided an extensive, well-organised and
well-written textbook in the field of developmental disorders ...
the author has, to a large extent, succeeded in providing an
informative textbook, given the aim and premises he outlines in the
introduction." Bjente Gjaerum, Oslo, European Child &
Adolescent Psychiatry, Vol. 11, 2002
"A particular strength of this text is Freides's teaching style. He is careful to define terms for the reader, to illustrate the source of these terms, and then, typically, provide a behavioral example of what is being discussed ... He is also very careful to present both the strengths and weaknesses of different conceptualizations of the putative causes of many of the behavioral problems presented by children with diverse disabilities ... As an introductory text, this work should attract a wide audience." Eileen B. Fennell, University of Florida, APA Review of Books, December 2003
