Historically, clinicians and researchers have focused on depression
and dementia in older people, paying little attention to anxiety
except as a complication of these disorders. However, increased
research into late-life anxiety has seen a growth in scientific
literature and clinical interest. This important book brings
together international experts to provide a comprehensive overview
of current knowledge in relation to anxiety in older people,
highlighting gaps in both theory and practice, and pointing towards
the future. Early chapters cover the broader aspects of anxiety
disorders, including epidemiology, risk factors, diagnostic issues,
association with insomnia, impaired daily functioning, suicidality,
and increased use of healthcare services. The book then explores
cross-cultural issues, clinical assessment, and pharmacological and
psychological interventions across a variety of settings. An
invaluable resource for mental health professionals caring for
older people including researchers, psychiatrists, psychologists,
specialist geriatric nurses and social workers.
