There have been important developments in the study and treatment
of selective mutism during the ten years since the first edition of
this book was published. Understanding of the subject has improved
more dramatically than in any period since the phenomenon of
children who talk readily in some situations but not in others was
first recognised over a century ago.
The second edition of this practical book reports recent
developments in medication and combined therapies. New findings on
the links between social anxiety, biological and genetic factors
and selective mutism are described. At the same time the authors
remain committed to understanding this pattern of behaviour in its
full social context in family and community and to employing
behavioural approaches to intervention alongside other methods.
This is the fullest and most authoritative book-length account
of selective mutism in print.
