Plainly, the effort to apply to historical language study the insights to be derived from synchronic linguistic analysis is fraught with difficulties. The problem is usually conceptualized – as it is by several of the contributors to the present collection of studies – as a difficult marriage of disciplined methods to obstreperous data, a mismatched union somehow to be mediated by the Uniformitarian Principle. To understand the issues properly, then, it would seem a prerequisite to be able to identify what, exactly, the Uniformitarian Principle is. Yet that question itself has no simple answer, in part because the question can be interpreted in at least two ways, both of them bearing directly upon the aims of this collection.

This is an excellent basic textboook of child psychiatry; written primarily for the child psychiatrist, it has much to offer the practicing pediatrician, primarily because it brings its rich array of information into a practical clinical framework. The book's strong point is its success at pulling together, into a unified framework, data from multiple different points of view. Its main weak point is its less-than-ideal updating from the First Edition (1966). The book consists of five sections.
