Kraepelin, who in 1896 first defined the disorder now known as
schizophrenia, appreciated that there were many difficulties with
the concept, and believed that, since the cause of the disorder was
essentially unknown, there could be no rational treatment. This
authoritative 1999 text provides a wide-ranging survey of the
disorder, including an extensive account of what was known about
the underlying biology. The main part of the book covers clinical
aspects, including differential and dual diagnosis, and treatment
and management problems, particularly in relation to care in the
community. Topics covered include brain imaging, genetics,
pharmacology and neuropsychology, as well as chapters on health
economics and forensic issues. The authors have extensive clinical
experience with schizophrenia patients, and this book, which is
unusual in its breadth and its concern for social and community
issues, will be a valuable reference for all psychiatrists, and
other health professionals involved in the management of
schizophrenia.
