Cambridge University Press A Clinicians Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Book SynopsisThis authoritative 2006 clinical handbook provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of the main disorders encountered by child and adolescent psychiatrists. Coverage is based on ICD-10 and DSM-IV classifications. Emphasis is on good clinical practice and quality of patient care and appendices include documents for assessment of intervention planning and evaluation.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'This substantial textbook, edited by well-known academics and clinicians, certainly provides a comprehensive guide to all the common disorders that clinicians working within child and adolescent mental health services are likely to encounter … I have enjoyed reading it and will undoubtedly use it. It is also a good resource for teaching medical students about the neurobiology underpinning schizophrenia or for an overview of the prodrome.' British Journal of PsychiatryReview of the hardback: '… [I] have enjoyed this book. It is clear that the ethos of the authors is multidisciplinary and inclusive of parents, carers, schools and social care in the management of children and adolescents with disorders … I felt I could translate what the author was describing into my daily clinical experience … The tables and diagrams are ideal for the busy clinician, they are clear and informative … I think this speaks for the utility of the book, as it is intended to be a synthesis, a 'desk book' for clinicians, and I think it succeeds very well indeed. For this reason I strongly recommend it.' Psychological MedicineReview of the hardback: 'I was delighted to review the book. It is an easy to read, comprehensive and enjoyable resource which will be well received by those concerned with the mental health of children and their families.'

Cambridge University Press Modelling and Managing the Depressive Disorders
Book SynopsisThis book argues that the current model for describing the mood disorders causes problems in diagnosis and management. The authors present an alternative approach to defining and managing the full range of depressive disorders.Trade Review'What I found particularly refreshing about this book was the brio with which it was written … the attitude and approach displayed by the authors of this volume are surely a hopeful prognostic sign for future research in depression.' Allan Y. Young, The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists'… these chapters … discuss the ideal attributes of a therapist and provide easily understandable case vignettes illustrating the personality disorders, [therefore] they are especially appropriate for students of psychiatry and psychology; some patients might find them a useful resource. They provide an easy-to-understand outline that would be helpful to a wide audience.' The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease'It's all good stuff and gets you thinking, especially about 'what is the illness I see before me, what is its likely natural history, why and how is the best way to treat it?'' Australia and New Zealand Association of Psychiatrists in Training'… this is a well-written book and the regular use of summary boxes and case vignettes makes it highly readable. The research expertise and clinical experience of the authors come across strongly and will make the book particularly attractive to clinicians. The provocative nature of the first section will cause many to challenge their view of depression. This book is highly recommended.'

Cambridge University Press The Maudsley Reader in Phenomenological Psychiatry
Book SynopsisThis unique book brings together and interprets previously hard-to-find texts, new translations and passages detailing the interplay between philosophy and psychopathology, making them accessible to a new generation of mental health researchers, practitioners and policy makers.Trade Review'[The Reader] brings together texts from both philosophers and clinicians which are otherwise difficult to access; many are newly translated … I found it absorbing and illuminating.' Baroness Mary Warnock, House of Lords'I wish every psychiatrist would buy it, read it, and (most importantly) apply its teachings in contemporary practice.' Professor Nancy Andreasen, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine'From these essays the reader will learn of methods and forms of understanding that should have a place in the thinking of all practitioners, and also of anyone who wants to know how self-consciousness really works.' Professor Roger Scruton, University of Oxford and University of St Andrews'… the material gathered here stems from widely dispersed and often not readily available sources.' Steven Crowell, Joseph and Joanna Nazro Mullen Professor of Philosophy, Rice University'This remarkable book covers a wide range of authors and topics in philosophical phenomenology and phenomenological psychiatry, from Brentano to Merleau-Ponty, from Jaspers to Blankenburg, from obsessions to schizophrenia. Indispensable for young clinicians who, coming into the field, want to leave behind the presumed objective certainties of the biomedical model and are interested in the life-worlds real patients live in.' Professor Giovanni Stanghellini, G. d'Annunzio University, Italy'People get sad, angry, euphoric, delusional - and sometimes they are sick. How can we tell whether someone has a disease or not? How can these experiences be understood as part of psychiatric diagnoses? When are they simply human experiences? These important questions - which are the basis of phenomenology - are infrequently asked in a psychiatry of checklists and drugs for symptoms. The Maudsley Reader [in Phenomenological Psychiatry] provides classic historical sources that can begin the process of asking these questions again, and beginning to answer them.' Professor Nassir Ghaemi, Tufts Medical Centre, Boston'It is traditional in a book boost to recommend all one's fellow professionals to buy it and read it. In this instance it is my heartfelt prayer.' Professor Paul E. Mullen, Monash University, Victoria'… a marvellous book … Buy it, whoever you are, and dip into its richness.' Dr John Cutting, Appraisal'Far from merely anthologizing some historical fascinomas, the editors of The Maudsley Reader in Phenomenological Psychiatry have provided a service to those involved in contemporary psychiatric practice, investigation, and training. The Reader can - with the editors' encouragement - be browsed according to one's interests and needs.' Journal of Clinical Psychiatry'The editors have performed a great service to readers in selecting and organising this work in a meaningful way … the book represents a formidable piece of scholarship.' British Journal of Psychiatry'The Reader is deserving of wide readership among all those with an interest in mental disorder: a tool to enhance, rather than undermine current psychiatric practices.'

Cambridge University Press The Freud Files An Inquiry into the History of Psychoanalysis
Book SynopsisHow did psychoanalysis attain its prominent cultural position? How did it eclipse rival psychologies and psychotherapies, such that it became natural to bracket Freud with Copernicus and Darwin? Why did Freud 'triumph' to such a degree that we hardly remember his rivals? This book reconstructs the early controversies around psychoanalysis and shows that rather than demonstrating its superiority, Freud and his followers rescripted history. This legend-making was not an incidental addition to psychoanalytic theory but formed its core. Letting the primary material speak for itself, this history demonstrates the extraordinary apparatus by which this would-be science of psychoanalysis installed itself in contemporary societies. Beyond psychoanalysis, it opens up the history of the constitution of the modern psychological sciences and psychotherapies, how they furnished the ideas which we have of ourselves and how these became solidified into indisputable 'facts'.Trade Review'Attempts to debunk the legend in the 1970s and 80s failed. But a current assault, helped by a wealth of 'declassified' material, correspondence and critical studies, looks more likely to dismantle the monomyth … the legend is 'fraying from all sides'.'
