This collection of 21 short stories of the treatment of patients across the life span with the integrated treatments of developmental psychiatry is based on the actual diagnosis and treatment of children, adolescents, young  and not so young adults. The stories are told from the perspective of the treating physician as he prepares for intervention or carries them out. The reader gets an intimate view of the professional life of a developmental psychiatrist as he diagnoses and intervenes, and as he struggles with conundrums and frustrating situations.
