Full Description
This special issue focuses on the non-pharmacological treatment of affective disorders. The latest approaches and the manner and direction in which they are developing as well as their status within the scientific community are discussed and reviewed by internationally recognized experts. Topics such as electroconvulsive therapy, transcranial magnetic stimulation, vagus nerve stimulation, and the neurosurgical investigation of depression are all well covered and the methods based on chronobiology, such as light therapy and sleep deprivation, are also included in order to provide a comprehensive picture of the current situation. These papers are obligatory reading for all researchers and clinicians in psychiatry who need to be aware of the range of treatment options available. Psychiatrists in training, neuroscientists, medical students and indeed anyone who wishes to know which non-pharmacological treatments are currently used in biological psychiatry and mood disorders in particular will find an up-to-date and comprehensive overview in this collection of papers.
