5.0 out of 5 stars
Throw everything else out
Throw every other neuropsychiatry text out. This is as much a delight as the APA Textbook of Neuropsychiatry was a disappointment (despite a lovely contribution from Osview and a strong neuroanatomy chapter). Get this, Mesulam and Hodges and you are set for the Neuropsychiatry board. Missing any discussion of neuronanatomy, however.

This review is from: Lishman's Organic Psychiatry: A Textbook of Neuropsychiatry (Hardcover)
Phenomenal review of neuropsychiatry. In-depth discussions of pathophysiology and presentation, with well-chosen case vignettes. Best of all: For such a momentous tome, it was a surprisingly good read (cover to cover). Hats off to the English for delivering this masterpiece.

There are over 4,000 articles in peer reviewed medical journals showing frank biological pathology in ME. ME causes an enormous amount of morbidity and suffering. The propagation of falsehoods like these contribute to a huge amount of iatrogenic morbidity (and sometimes mortality) for people with ME.
