Synopsis

Every psychiatrist eventually meets the patient whose "depression," "first psychosis," or "personality change" is the opening sign of a brain disease. Miss it and the cost can be irreversible. Recognize it and you change the outcome.


This is the neurology that psychiatric practice actually depends on—bedside skill, not abstract neuroscience. Step by step, it builds the reasoning that separates a primary psychiatric disorder from a neurological one wearing its disguise.


Inside, you will learn to:


  • Perform a focused neurological and cognitive examination that fits a psychiatric setting

  • Reason from symptom to site with practical, demystified localization

  • Recognize the core syndromes—delirium, the dementias, brain-based psychosis, mood and personality change, catatonia, and functional neurological disorder

  • Read neuroimaging, EEG, spinal fluid, and laboratory results—and know what to order and when

  • Catch the red flags and the treatable "do-not-miss" conditions that so often masquerade as mental illness






Includes a companion deck of 224 rapid-review flashcards—single-concept question-and-answer cards drawn directly from these chapters and built for active recall—so the book becomes a study system: read to understand, then test yourself to remember.


Written for psychiatrists, psychiatry residents, medical students, and every clinician working where the two fields meet.


Complete on its own, and the companion to Neurology in Psychiatric Practice.
