Since the publication of the fifth edition of the Concise Guide to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in 2017, the field has evolved significantly. Evaluation methods have been sharpened, evidence-based treatments have multiplied, stigma surrounding mental illness has waned, and debates about disorders and treatments have surged in the media. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic, the widespread adoption of social media, and ongoing challenges with access to care have reshaped how psychiatric professionals support young patients and their families.

This sixth edition distills and incorporates the latest research and the collective clinical expertise that leading experts consider most relevant, delivering actionable insights tailored to todays practice. Key updates include the following:

* Every section has been revised to reflect DSM-5-TR criteria

* Outdated diagnostic and treatment information has been pruned and new recommendations have been made

* A brand-new chapter on neuromodulation has been added

* Two new expert authors have joined as contributors

Crucially, the guide retains its core strengths: the authors bring extensive clinical and teaching experience, abundant summary tables provide rapid access to essential information, key references and additional readings offer pathways for further study, and recommended resources for parents reinforce the clinician-family partnership.

Covering the diagnosis and treatment of neurodevelopmental, anxiety, mood, trauma-related, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and others, this concise guide remains rich in practical guidance. Designed as a primer for medical and mental health students and trainees, it also serves as a focused, up-to-date resource for practicing clinicians.
