Full Description
Psychiatry stands at a crossroads, balancing heightened societal expectations with pointed criticism. Meeting these challenges requires more than diagnosis—it demands a broader approach. Any clinician who assesses a patient solely through DSM or ICD criteria misunderstands the process. Good care begins with accurate diagnosis but extends to the patient's context: family, upbringing, genetics, physical health, stressors and psychodynamics. Long considered a leading text on the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric disorders, this book rejects the caricature of modern psychiatry, offering instead a dedicated, humanistic and common-sense approach.
This latest revision includes cutting-edge updates in psychopharmacology, computational neuroscience and functional neuroimaging. Geared to graduate students in psychiatry, psychology, counselling and related disciplines, it makes practical, readable sense of psychopathology.
