The Association's clinical journal, CAMH, has a long developmental history. It began life in 1979 as an informal publication - the News - before metamorphosing into the Newsletter (1984), the Newsletter and Review (1993), the Child Psychology and Psychiatry Review (1996) and finally CAMH (2002). This move from a simple newsletter to a high quality journal, under a succession of dedicated editors, reflected a desire to meet the demands of the membership for a space where clinically relevant material could be published. At the time, it was a daring idea for the Association to launch a purely clinical journal when academic journals dominated the market and when the Association was known for its highly scholarly and academic journal, the JCPP. but, the success of CAMH and its development as the leading journal promoting evidence based pracitce in the UK has justified this move. CAMH neatly bridges the academic and practitioner divide, publishing clear, accessible and scholarly papers from national and international contributors. It has entered the internet age with enthusiasm, and can now boast a total of 69,000 articles being downloaded in 2005.
