Until recently the literature has sadly neglected the commonest
disorders of old age which, lacking a demonstrable organic basis,
have tended to be called 'functional'. Professor Chiu and Dr Ames
provide us with the first comprehensive text to deal with all the
non-dementing psychiatric disorders in a practical guide and
exhaustive reference. Interfacing psychiatry and somatic medicine,
and confronting the issues of co-morbidity, this text clearly
outlines our core knowledge about clinical problems, discussing
appropriate treatments and highlighting areas for future research.
Along with case histories which bring much of the detail into
lively focus, chapters are neatly cross-referenced and are rich in
practical advice for multidisciplinary management strategies. A
unique group of contributors of international renown includes
members of a number of allied health disciplines relevant to
old-age psychiatry. This text is sure to be of widespread interest
to all professionals concerned with the health of older people.
