This book is a must have for anyone who treats individuals with bipolar disorder or wants to learn more about this complex, often difficult to treat problem which can be so frustrating to patients and clinicians. All one needs to know about pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy and combining the two is in this book. It carefully guides the reader through the different stages, covering diagnosis, the treatment of acute mania and depression and maintenance treatment with both medication and psychotherapy. The authors are two of the most experienced clinicians and researchers in this field. A fantastic book and must read!

5.0 out of 5 starsState-of-the-art! by Angus Strachan, Ph.D., clinical psychologist
By Angus Strachan on July 25, 2014
Format: Hardcover
This is an unusually well-informed and well-written book. The authors are two eminent professors in the department of psychiatry at UCLA who have both worked with many people with bipolar disorder and their families. They have both been involved in numerous NIMH-sponsored research trials.

They discuss the challenges faced by people with bipolar disorder in a sensitive and helpful manner. They discuss differential diagnosis. They describe pharmacological choices in detail, both for acute episodes and for maintenance treatment. They describe the best choices for individual and family treatment. They describe the challenges of medication non-adherence and the special complications posed by pregnancy and other more complex situations.

They integrate recent findings about the helpful role the family can play in the diagnosis, treatment and maintenance of the person with bipolar disorder.

This book is aimed at clinicians who work with bipolar patients and their families. There are many practice pointers to help engage these sometimes difficult and challenging patients. The text is sprinkled with anecdotes and examples that illustrate key points and make the book easy to read.

While the intended audience is clinicians, this is a book that can be read and understood by patients and their families as well as anyone who wants to understand bipolar disorder and its treatment.

5.0 out of 5 starsA must-read for clinicians and persons with bipolar disorder!
By Mary A. Fristad, Ph.D. on July 13, 2014
Format: Hardcover
This imminently practical book, written by two UCLA Professors of Psychiatry, should be required reading for any practitioner who works with adults with bipolar disorder. Individuals with the diagnosis will also find it very helpful to understand the evidence-base for treatment. Drs. Miklowitz and Gitlin, a psychologist and psychiatrist, respectively, have 60+ years of specialized experience and it shows. The book is chock-full of practical suggestions and is cutting edge in its description of efficacious treatments.
