[et al.] Oxford,New York Oxford University Press 2003 xx, 791 p. ill. 29 cm It was six men of Indostan To learning much inclined, Who went to see the Elephant (Though all of them were blind), That each by observation Might satisfy his mind. John Godfrey Saxe (1816-1887) Pediatric psychopharmacology has been a much maligned and often misunderstood form of treatment for children with clinically significant psychiatric and behavioral disturbances. This legacy is largely attributable to the same ignorance that plagued the blind men. Critics and faux scientists have all grabbed a portion of the problem for their own purposes or polemics, rather than appreciating the large and complex nature of the problems involved in the diagnosis and treatment of children and adolescents with psychiatric illness. This is a particularly sad state of affairs, since the estimated prevalence of such disorders is approximately 20 percent.
