Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
I have been very satisfied with your publications [Panic Disorder and Agoraphobia and Stimulants and Hyperactive Children] and have distributed them to my private patients and they are becoming quite popular in the community. The families like to read the information and come back to their follow up appointments with questions for clarification and this has led to a good understanding of each disorder and some of the interventions. -- A psychiatrist, New York, 1992
From the Publisher
One in a series of concise, easy-to-understand, up-to-date booklets on major mental illnesses and their treatments. There is a lot of information circulating, and it is difficult to separate the useful from the trivial. A team of results-oriented clinicians wrote each of the guides. They draw on their own research findings and their own experiences working with patients and sort through studies done by other clinicians to present information on the latest, most efficient, effective treatments known. There is background information on each illness, often some self-help suggestions, and always the answers to commonly asked questions. Whether you need the information for yourself, a family member, a friend, a colleague, or a patient, one of these guides will prove invaluable.
