Its previous edition hailed as “the best reference for the majority of practicingpsychiatrists” (Doody’s Book Reviews) and a book that “more than any other, provides an
approach to how to think about psychiatry that integrates both the biological and
psychological” (JAMA), The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry
has been meticulously revised to maintain this pre-eminence as an accessible and
authoritative educational reference and clinical compendium. It combines the strengths of
its three editors—Robert Hales in clinical and community psychiatry, Stuart Yudofsky in neuropsychiatry, and new coeditor
Glen Gabbard in psychotherapy—in recruiting outstanding authors to summarize the latest developments in
psychiatry and features 101 contributors, 65 of whom are new to this edition.
The book boasts a new interior design, with more figures and color throughout to aid comprehension. Each chapter
ends with 5–10 key points, 5–10 recommended readings, and helpful Web sites not only for the clinician but also for
patients and family members. The book also includes complimentary access to the full text online. Online benefits
include powerful searching, electronic bookmarking, and access by username and password from wherever you have
Web access—especially convenient for times when the print copy of your textbook is not where you are. The online
version is accompanied by a downloadable PowerPoint presentation, which contains a wealth of material to enhance
classroom presentation, study, and clinical use.
Among the improvements to this edition’s content:
Of the text’s 44 chapters, 23 either feature new topics or have new authors, making this the most completely
revised edition yet.
New basic-science chapters on cellular and molecular biology of the neuron and on neuroanatomy for the
psychiatrist conveniently distill essential information on the biological foundations of psychiatric disorders for
clinicians.
A new chapter on human sexuality and sexual dysfunctions, and another new chapter on treatment of gay,
lesbian, bisexual, and transgender patients, equips clinicians to address the entire spectrum of sexual issues
and their attendant mental health concerns.
New chapters on nonpharmacological somatic treatments, supportive psychotherapy, and combination
psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy augment the section on psychiatric treatments. A new chapter on the assessment of dangerousness—an individual’s propensity to commit violent acts—
presents helpful guideli
