Psychiatric Aspects of Neurologic Diseases: Practical Approaches to
Patient Care is targeted at neurologists, psychiatrists, and other
physicians who care for patients with the most common neurologic
diseases ranging from Alzheimer's to stroke to headaches to
multiple sclerosis to epilepsy. The book provides a practical
approach to the evaluation and treatment of the psychiatric
conditions that affect the vast majority of these patients and are
as disabling as the neurologic symptoms. Drawing from the
collective wisdom and clinical expertise of the faculty of the
Johns Hopkins Division of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neuropsychiatry,
one of the largest and most well known faculties in this
specialized field, the book provides a wealth of useful clinical
information for physicians who care for these patients. The volume
is divided into three parts: the first part (2 chapters) provides a
detailed approach to the evaluation and differential diagnosis of
the neurologic patient with psychiatric symptoms followed by a
discussion of the common psychiatric syndromes seen in these
patients. The second part discusses in detail the epidemiology,
clinical presentation, and treatment of psychiatric conditions in
12 neurologic diseases, written by experts in each of these
diseases. The third discusses in depth the range of psychiatric
treatments, both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic, available to
treat the psychiatric aspects of neurologic diseases, specifically
tailored to their use with the neurologic patient. The book is
intended to serve as a practical reference for clinicians and is
written in clear language, with distinct separated text segments,
linked to the frequent use of tables. A glossaryof terms, used
throughout the book, is provided at the end for easy reference.
