Aprašymas

The first book of its kind, Rational Psychopharmacology teaches the reader how to think thoroughly and methodically when assessing a patient, reviewing research data (both basic and clinical), and developing and evaluating effective patient recommendations. Other psychopharmacology texts are typically limited to a list of currently available medications and their rationales for use, dosages, and side effects, and fail to provide the clinician with the systematic orientation and skills necessary to engage in thorough and rational treatment planning. Those learning to prescribe psychiatric medications will find immense benefit in this book's method and veteran clinicians wishing to improve their psychopharmacology skills will also discover fresh, evidence-based approaches to clinical dilemmas. The author, a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, brings more than 30 years experience in clinical research and private practice to this work which boasts features designed to teach and test the reader as well as suggestions for additional study.

Its down-to-earth style, logical progression and singular voice make this book an excellent companion for mastering and practicing the art of psychopharmacology.
