Book Synopsis Child Temperament: New Thinking About the Boundary Between Traits and Illness by : David Rettew
Book excerpt: This work explores the differences between temperamental traits and psychological disorders. What is the difference between a child who is temperamentally sad and one who has depression? Can a child be angry by temperament without being mentally ill? Here, the author discusses the factors that can propel children with particular temperamental tendencies towards or away from more problematic trajectories.
