It is clear from reading this book that Fabiano truly understands what it is like to live with, teach, or treat a child with a disruptive behavior disorder. Based in research, the book is written in a down-to-earth way, with realistic suggestions for educators and clinicians. The broad focus on evidence-based techniques is important and unique. Although many effective packaged interventions for this population are available, they are all largely based on the same important behavioral principles. Fabiano cogently conveys those core principles so that educators and clinicians can apply them flexibly to a broad range of problems across multiple settings. --Joshua M. Langberg, PhD, Center for ADHD Research, Education, and Service, Department of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University
