Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Widely used as the core text for psychiatry clerkships and a board review for psychiatry residents, Clinical Psychiatry for Medical Students is now in its revised, updated Third Edition. The text emphasizes the biopsychosocial model as a framework for clinical psychiatry and includes many clinical examples. Current DSM-IV diagnostic categories are used throughout the book. This edition features a new chapter on legal issues in psychiatry and completely rewritten chapters on biopsychosocial assessment and case formulation; delirium, dementia, and other disorders associated with cognitive impairment; schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders; personality disorders; mood disorders; anxiety disorders; geriatric psychiatry; dissociative disorders; psychiatric disorders of childhood and adolescence; biological therapies for mental disorders; basic principles of pain management; and behavioral medicine strategies for medical patients. This text is particularly effective when used in conjunction with Stoudemire's Human Behavior: An Introduction for Medical Students, also in its newly revised Third Edition.

Book News Annotation:

Provides an integrated approach to understanding human development and behavior as it relates to the practice of medicine. Biological, psychological, and sociological factors are all considered to be important in evaluating and treating psychiatric illness. Deals with major clinical psychopathological syndromes, and describes the practical management of common psychiatric disorders encountered in medical and surgical practice. This third edition reflects DSM-IV terminology, and integrates psychological concepts with biological approaches to studying behavior and psychopathology.
