Book Description

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is now recognized to be a serious and chronic illness that affects more than 2% of the population. Although the last decade has witnessed many advances on both the pharmacological and the behavioral fronts, fewer than 50% of cases benefit significantly from currently available treatments. In this volume, leading authorities offer a comprehensive, cutting-edge overview of etiology, diagnosis, assessment of OCD, and the latest approaches to treatment. A special focus is treatment-resistant cases that comprise over half the total.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Contemporary Issues in Treatment will be an indispensable resource for all professionals who seek better solutions to the often seemingly intractable problems of their OCD clients.

Editorial Reviews

Review

...this worthwhile book...[provides] a range of viewpoints on the genesis and treatment of the disorder.
READINGS: A Journal of Reviews and Commentary in Mental Health

The collection of chapters from this book represents the most comprehensive, up-to-date compendium of knowledge about obsessive-compulsive disorder yet compiled. Only the NIMH, in collaboration with the Obsessive-Compulsive Foundation, could have pulled together so many clinical investigators representing such diverse points of view. From neurobiology to neurosurgery to the newest psychological treatments for refractory OCD, the mental health professional will find an enormous amount of important information. The editors are to be commended for their superb organization of this wealth of information.
