Differential diagnosis is made easier with the inclusion of diagnostic evaluation checklists and DSM-IV-TR criteria, and treatment interventions are described in detail, with accompanying drug dosage tables and comparison begins—just as the doctor-patient interaction commences—with the assessment interview. Subsequent chapters focus on the classes of mental illness, such as anxiety disorders, personality disorders, and psychotic disorders. In each chapter, Dr. Lauren B. Marangell, lead author of Concise Guide to Psychopharmacology and an expert on the psychopharmacology of mood disorders, succeeds in distilling the most current and essential diagnostic and treatment information residents need to maintain a high quality of care. Ths many features maximize convenience while achieving full coverage: • Both the entire volume and individual chapters are structured logically to lead the resident smoothly from assessment to treatment, without oversimplifying or sacrificing patient care.• A wealth of easy-to-read tables, charts, and checklists focuses reader attention on the most important material, ensuring accuracy and making information retrieval easier.
