Book News Annotation:

In this update of the 2000 edition, Ebert (Yale U. School of Medicine) introduces 50 chapters by mostly US contributors that incorporate advances from the psychological and biomedical sciences which impact clinical psychiatric practice. Useful new material includes a section on practice in special settings (e.g., emergency care, consultancies, forensic psychiatry), and updates on key diagnostic, psychopharmacologic and psychotherapeutic modalities. Beginning with issues and errors in clinical reasoning, authors cover evidence-based diagnosis, treatment, and prevention methods, and disorders in adults, children, and adolescents. The text includes patient vignettes. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
