This engagingly written survey covers the history of anxiety
disorders and current approaches to their definition and treatment.
Anxiety disorders are significant mental health illnesses that
impair lives and cost society millions of dollars in health care
expenses and lost productivity. Greater awareness of anxiety
disorders is essential for both the general public and health
professionals if those who suffer from them are to be identified,
receive proper treatment, and have a chance at leading fulfilling
lives. To that end, Anxiety begins with a historical overview of
the ways in which anxiety disorders have been understood, from the
prehistoric era until the present time, examining the disorders
from the perspectives of conceptualization, classification,
research, and treatment. Subsequent chapters examine these themes
in light of our current understanding and approaches to anxiety
disorders. Current diagnostic and assessment methods are discussed,
as are modern treatment options. The book concludes with a survey
of the future directions in research for the understanding and
treatment of anxiety disorders.
