This fully updated third edition of Psychiatry in Medical Practice takes into account major changes in medical education since 1994. New sections provide information on problem-based learning and observed structured clinical examinations.
Divided into four sections, this book covers:
- clinical approaches to the patient
- syndromes of disorder
- disorders related to stages of the life cycle
- services, ethics and the law.
As well as retaining the key features of the previous editions, this book includes two brand new chapters on risk assessment and the Mental Health Service. A handy portable reference card is also included; this has been updated to incorporate a scale for assessing cerebral impairment in the elderly, and a new assessment of suicidal risk scale.
This highly practical book is an essential guide for all medical students and doctors in training who are involved with psychiatry. It is also a useful reference tool for those who are more experienced in the field.
Professor Sir David Goldberg is Professor Emeritus at the Institute of Psychiatry, London
Linda Gask is Professor of Primary Care Psychiatry at Manchester University
Richard Morriss is Professor in the Division of Psychiatry at Nottingham University
