Synopsis:
The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Schizophrenia, Second Edition, is an invaluable single source for the latest scholarship and clinical knowledge about schizophrenia. Progress since the last edition, published more than a decade ago, mandated a thorough revision, and the editors have produced just that: a completely restructured text that combines the authoritative knowledge of veteran clinicians and researchers with the insight and expertise of a new generation. Three-quarters of the contributors are new to this edition, and aside from a few thoroughly revised foundational chapters, the text is completely original. The book is divided into three parts, addressing the presentation of schizophrenia, the etiology and pathophysiology of the disorder, and treatment and rehabilitative therapies. Chapters within these sections cover the fundamental-epidemiology, psychopathology, and pharmacotherapies-and the fresh-cultural variations in the presentation of schizophrenia, epigenetic causes, and the promising field of neuromodulation. Not just an update, but an entirely new take on this critically important subject, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Schizophrenia supersedes the previous edition and surpasses its competitors.
