<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>The Clinical Guide to Assessment and Treatment of Childhood Learning and Attention Problems</i> provides assessment and treatment recommendations for learning disorders (LD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Brimming with case studies and other practical guidance, the book reviews etiology of LD and ADHD, outlines the diagnostic criteria per DSM-5, and includes clinical insights for assessment and intervention. Evidence-based assessment and intervention strategies are emphasized, linking assessment to treatment selection and evaluation. Techniques for improving treatment outcomes and supplemental intervention planning are presented, including common modifications and accommodations for learning disorders and attention problems. </p> <p>In addition, tutoring techniques, strategies for specific types of learning problems, and recommendations for Individualized Education Plans are all explored.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>The Clinical Guide to Assessment and Treatment of Childhood Learning and Attention Problems</i> is a timely addition to the existing body of works on assessment and treatment recommendations for such issues. Unlike many of the previously available books on learning and attention problems, this book appropriately offers specific guidance about conducting assessments and treatment interventions for both diagnoses. This integrated approach is so fitting as these problems are commonly co-occurring pediatric disorders. The editor, Martel, provides a critical analysis of the academic and clinical treatment interventions. Each academic and clinical intervention has a respective chapter that offers in-depth descriptions of that given method. More widely known interventions are contrasted with newer, relatively obscure techniques. Especially to be appreciated is coverage of more novel neurotherapeutic interventions including repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). <b>--Lucia J.
