Seller's Description:
New. "Now in its third edition, Essentials of Psychiatry provides a synopsis of the most important clinical material included within the fifth edition of The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry, a work hailed as "the best reference for the majority of practicing psychiatrists" (Doody's Book Reviews). Revised and updated to incorporate the latest research findings, this economical paperback abridgement of the Textbook presents, in distilled form, the core knowledge base of clinical psychiatry by focusing on information of greatest relevance to students, residents, and practicing clinicians. To create the Essentials, the editors meticulously vetted the original Textbook's 44 chapters and selected those they deemed most important for clinical practice. The resulting 22 chapters constitute a concise yet comprehensive tutorial on clinical psychiatry and are presented in a manner that is at once interesting and accessible. Included in this volume are * Two chapters dedicated to psychiatric interviewing and diagnostic assessment (including laboratory testing and neuroimaging). * Twelve chapters covering clinically common psychiatric disorders (delirium and dementia; substance abuse; schizophrenia; and mood, anxiety, somatoform, adjustment, impulse-control, personality, childhood-onset, sleep, and eating disorders). * Four chapters summarizing major treatments and therapies (psychopharmacology, brief psychotherapies, psychodynamic psychotherapy, and cognitive therapy). * Two chapters focused on specific patient populations (children/adolescents, and seniors). * Two chapters addressing additional critical issues (psychiatry and the law; suicide).
