"Hans Steiner is to be congratulated on this important effort to call attention to clinical problems in the earliest years of life. In this introductory text, he has assembled an outstanding group of clinicians who describe and illustrate the important developmental and clinical issues of the first five years. Those who evaluate and treat young children will find much to admire in this well-organized volume." (Charles H. Zeanah, M.D., Department of Psychiatry, Louisiana State University Medical College)
