This book focuses on hot issues faced by clinicians in everyday
clinical practice, and provides in-depth analyses of both met and
unmet needs in the management of psychiatric disorders. It has been
repeatedly shown that the needs of patients, relatives, the
community at large and those of the governmental bodies only
partially overlap. For instance, patients in their families are
more concerned about quality of life, treatment, autonomy, and
independent living; whereas governmental stakeholders are typically
more concerned about relapse prevention and reduction of
hospitalizations. As such, a volume bridging the gap between
theoretical notions and practical understanding of patients'
untreated aspects of their psychiatric disorders is much needed.
Instead of focusing on traditional descriptions of psychopathology
and diagnostic criteria, the volume guides readers to core problems
for each topic, taking into account new approaches in the
classification of mental disorders as proposed by DSM-5. It
elaborates on much-debated controversial problems such as the
assessment and treatment of psychomotor agitation, and
non-adherence to treatment that impacts on the psychiatric context.
With its unique approach, this volume appeals to anyone with an
interest in the field, including researchers, clinicians, and
trainees.
