Présentation de l'éditeur

Psychiatry in Medical Practice provides students with a reliable framework within which to understand the psychiatric illnesses they are likely to encounter in general medical settings and clear guidelines for good practice.

The ICD-10 classification is used throughout. The book includes:

  • a practical guide to the medical interview
  • diagnostic criteria for all the common syndromes of psychiatric illness
  • up-to-date findings from neurochemistry and epidemiology

In straightforward and practical language Psychiatry in Medical Practice demystifies the relationships between the various kinds of mental disorder and provides an excellent introduction to the subject for those students who intend to enter psychiatry or general practice.
