The Bipolar Child: The Definitive and Reassuring Guide to Childhood's Most Misunderstood Disorder Demitri Papolos, M.D. and Janice Papolos, ©1999, 398 pp., hardcover Early onset bipolar disorder is certainly not a new disorder, but only recently has it been identified and recognized. It still doesn't get the attention it needs—it is all-too-often misdiagnosed and mistreated. This book is the first to address the disorder in a comprehensive manner. It details diagnosis, tells how to find good treatment and medications, and advises parents about ways to advocate effectively for their children at school. Written with a great deal of understanding, The Bipolar Child reaches out a warm helping hand to families who otherwise may feel all alone in dealing with this devastating disorder.
