Review For all mental health practitioners, all medical practitioners concerned with behavioral health and its integration into holistic care, and for consumers of mental health services, the seventh edition of APA Publishing's Textbook of Psychiatry is an indispensable tool and reference to inform practice, life-long learning, and shared decision- making. Comprehensive in scope, this volume reflects admirably the enormous breadth of psychiatric, neuropsychiatric, and behavioral sciences that have continued to evolve. The Textbook of Psychiatry bridges contemporary scientific streams and practice in a balanced and forward-looking way that is rarely achieved. Praise is due to the senior editor, Laura Roberts, for the vision she has brought to this undertaking, fully in keeping with, and furthering, the scholarly tradition launched by the inaugural editors, Robert Hales and Stuart Yudofsky. The volume reminds us all how fortunate we are to have so many authors that represent our profession at its best--as clinicians, educators, and researchers. --Charles F. Reynolds III, M.D., Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry and UPMC Endowed Professor in Geriatric Psychiatry emeritus, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine The field of psychiatry, like all of medicine, is deepening in knowledge and skills and broadening in its ability to reach suffering patients. It can be challenging for practitioners to keep up. Yet ongoing practitioner education is critical to our patients and our ability to work together. APA Publishing's textbook has always provided one of the most useful and efficient ways for practicing clinicians to stay abreast of important developments in psychiatric thinking and practice. This textbook is also an important way for those in our sister mental health professions to understand the psychiatric profession as we work with them (in the words of editor-in-chief Laura Roberts) 'shoulder to shoulder'. It is increasingly evident that optimal behavioral health is critically important for physical as well as psychological and social functioning. This textbook should play a central role in guiding all mental health professionals as they seek to follow the wisdom of writer Maya Angelou, 'Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.' The editor and authors of this textbook show us how we can do better. --M. Katherine Shear M.D., Marion E. Kenworthy Professor of Psychiatry, Columbia University School of Social Work, Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons; Director, Center for Complicated Grief Read more From the Inside Flap The new seventh edition of The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry reflects advances in the understanding of the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders as well as the positive, transformational change that has taken place in the field of psychiatry as a whole since the last edition. Dr. Roberts, who was a coeditor in the previous edition, has assumed editorial leadership and provides a solid bridge to a fresh generation of chapter authors who share the objectives of furthering knowledge for the benefit of patients and students, of dismantling health disparities, and of stimulating inquiry to satisfy the imperative of improving human health for all people. Not merely an update of the classic Textbook, the new volume exceeds expectations, incorporating deep understanding of mechanisms of disease, novel therapeutic methods, rich evidence-based clinical approaches, and adaptive systems and models of care.Comprehensive, authoritative, and insightful, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry both elucidates the essentials of sound psychiatric practice and illuminates the future directions of the field.
