Assessment and Therapy is a derivative volume of articles pulled
from the award-winning Encyclopedia of Mental Health, presenting a
comprehensive overview of assessing and treating the many disorders
afflicting mental health patients, including alcohol problems,
Alzheimer's disease, depression, epilepsy, gambling,
obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias, and suicide
According to 1990 estimates, mental disorders represent five of the
ten leading causes of disability.* Among "developed" nations,
including the United States, major depression is the leading cause
of disability. Also near the top of these rankings are bipolar
depression, alcohol dependence, schizophrenia, and
obsessive-compulsive disorder. In addition, mental disorders are
tragic contributors to mortality, with suicide perennially
representing one of the leading preventable causes of death
worldwide.
Assessment and Therapy describes the impact of mental health on the
individual and society and illustrates the factors that aid
positive mental health. Twenty-six peer-reviewed articles written
by more than 40 expert authors include essential material on
assessing and treating schizophrenia, manic-depressive illness,
major depression, anxiety disorders, and other mental illnesses.
Professionals and libraries will find this timely work
indispensable.
