Depression affects between 10-15% of older people, making it the
most frequently encountered mental health condition in later life.
Despite this, the condition is easily missed in clinical practice
or not adequately treated. Part of the Oxford Psychiatry Library,
this second edition of Depression in Later Life highlights areas of
depression which are of special relevance to later life, how to
diagnose depression in an older person, the overlap with dementia
and various other physical illnesses, and important pharmacological
and psychological considerations. All chapters have been updated
with new data where relevant, and case vignettes are included to
ensure the book is relatable and easy to read.
