"In an era of accountability and emphasis on scientifically based educational practices, this handbook delivers. In 30 succinct chapters, this text provides depth and breadth, covering research on the foundations, assessment, characteristics, interventions, and research methodology of EBD."

-Daniel P. Hallahan, PhD, Department of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education, University of Virginia
"Anyone interested in having, in one volume, the best authors writing on the most recent knowledge, research, and practices for educating students with EBD should have this book in his or her library....No other single source matches the quality, breadth, depth, and comprehensiveness of information that is found here."

-George Sugai, PhD, Area of Special Education, University of Oregon
"Unlike many other volumes in the area, the recommendations provided here are backed by the most objective scientific research, rather than the authors' political or philosophical leanings. It is a 'must' for anyone who truly wants to know how to effectively help these challenging students."

-Gary M. Sasso, PhD, Special Education Program, University of Iowa
"The chapters are well written and appropriately provocative, raising fundamental and timely considerations for assessing emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) and developing empirically validated interventions. This book will be a valuable addition to graduate training programs and personal reference libraries for special educators, school psychologists, and mental health professionals who are working to improve the lives of children with EBD."
