Employing accessible language throughout, this book covers the
history of psychiatric research, the current state-of-the art in
psychiatric practice, the physiological systems affected by
psychiatric illnesses, the whole-body nature of these diseases and
the impact that this aspect has on emerging biomarker discoveries.
Further, it provides descriptions of the major specific psychiatric
disorders and the special challenges regarding the diagnosis and
treatment of each. The book concludes with insights into the latest
developments in hand-held biomarker test devices, which can provide
diagnostic information in less than 15 minutes in point-of-care
settings. This book investigates the emerging use of biomarkers in
the study of psychiatric diseases, a topic of considerable
importance for a broad range of people including researchers,
clinicians, psychiatrists, university students and even those whose
lives are affected in some way by a psychiatric illness. The last
category is hardly trivial, since a staggering one in three people
worldwide show the criteria for at least one psychiatric disorder
at some point in their lifetime.
