This text emphasizes the psychiatric disorders most commonly seen in general patient care and fully reflects the DSM-IV. It proves workbook-type case studies and critical thinking exercises from the acute, long-term and community medical-surgical care settings. Chapter pedagogy throughout includes learning objectives, key terms at chapter openings, chapter summaries, case studies, and sample test questions. Appropriate chapters contain a table of medical illness or medications that may cause abnormal behaviours that can be confused with a psychiatric illness, while others contain patient teaching information to facilitate compliance. The mechanism of action of psychiatric drugs is explained, and disorders chapters include a summary table of the medications used to treat each disorder.
