Edit Summary[edit]

Dr. Alejandro Rodriguez is considered a notable child psychiatrist, not as profound a luminary as Dr. Leon Eisenberg, whom he followed and under whom he served at Johns Hopkins, but a luminary in child psychiatry and a founding voice from the earliest days of its discipline.

Consider two of his publications - one of these very early in the field of child psychiatry, co-authoried with his wife Maria and Dr. Leon Eisenberg, then Division Chief of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins; and the other authored alone, in its entirety, a standard handbook in the field, and widely cited.

Rodriguez A, Rodriguez M and Eisenberg L. The outcome of school phobia: a follow up study. Am J Psychiat. 1959 (December); 116:540-544. Rodriguez, A. (1977). Handbook of Child Abuse and Neglect. Medical Examination Publishing Company. ISBN-10: 0874886481.
