This new edition of Schizophrenia and Related Syndromes has been
thoroughly updated and revised to provide an authoritative overview
of the subject, including new chapters on the neurodevelopmental
hypothesis, cognitive neuropsychology, and schizophrenia and
personality.
Peter McKenna guides the reader through a vast amount of
literature on schizophrenia plus related syndromes such as paranoia
and schizoaffective disorder, providing detailed and in-depth, but
highly readable, accounts of the key areas of research. The book
describes the clinical features of schizophrenia and its causes and
treatment, covering subjects such as:
- Aetiological factors in schizophrenia
- The neurodevelopmental theory of schizophrenia
- Neuroleptic drug treatment
- Paraphrenia and paranoia
- Childhood schizophrenia, autism and Asperger's syndrome
Schizophrenia and Related Syndromes will prove invaluable for
psychiatrists and clinical psychologists in training and in
practice. It will also be a useful guide for mental health
professionals and researchers working in related fields.
