Suicide: Biopsychosocial Approaches

Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

In this in-depth coverage of challenges and progress in the field of suicidality, contributors to two dozen selected papers from the International Conference on Suicide (1996, Athens) provide an integrative perspective on the multifactorial major public health enigma of suicide: its epidemiology (in general and special populations); etiopathogenetic considerations (neurobiology, heredity, risk/protective factors, and violence); clinical issues (assessment in children and adults, parasuicide, antidepressant drugs); and conceptual and ethical issues (the will to die, physician- assisted suicide, and the future of suicide research).
