local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
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. Competent care begins with accurate diagnosis but extends to the patient's context for an understanding of the biological, psychological, social, spiritual, developmental, and cultural contributors to psychopathology and well-being.
Long considered a leading text on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders, this book offers an essential, integrated, and common-sense approach to modern psychiatry. This revision includes timely updates in psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, computational neuroscience, and functional neuroimaging. Geared to graduate students in psychiatry, psychology, counseling and related disciplines, it makes practical, readable sense of psychopathology. It also serves as an indispensable resource for seasoned clinicians.
