Synopsis

This introductory text provides a fresh problem-orientated approach to psychiatry. The selection of the contributors ensures an up-to-date and authoritative summary of each topic, and a high degree of co-ordination between them ensures consistency of style and a minimum of overlap. The distinctive style of presentation makes extensive use of diagrams and tables to highlight key information and introduce optional reading. An extensive use of case studies is made to illustrate the clinical problems and issues referred to in the text. Each chapter also includes an initial information summary sheet, sample questions and a list of recommended further reading, making it ideal for all students, MRCP candidates and those requiring an introductory text for the MRCPsych examinations. It will also be invaluable to those in the allied health professions such as social workers, psychiatric nurses and occupational therapists.
