Quatrième de couverture

The recognition, diagnosis and management of depression in patients suffering from physical illnesses is a subject of growing importance and has contributed to the emergence of the specialty of "Liaison Psychiatry" or "General Hospital Psychiatry". The treatment of such patients often involves junior or mid–career psychiatrists working in hospital posts, but medical specialists also increasingly need to appreciate the effects of depression on disease progression. The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive and scholarly, yet practical approach to the topic, concentrating on the presentation, assessment, aetiology, management and prognosis of depression occurring in a range of physical disorders.
