Description
Book SynopsisIn psychiatry, as in all of medicine, clinicians are frequently involved in training students and residents yet few have themselves been trained in pedagogy. Improving the quality of psychiatric education should both improve the quality of psychiatric care and make the profession more attractive to medical students.
Trade Review"This book deserves our attention since it covers a very important topic and sheds light on common predicaments of our profession. There are summary tables in each section, which makes it an easy and interesting book to read. This is a bedside book for every psychiatrist who is responsible for educating others, particularly for the ones working in academic settings and training hospitals" (Turkish Journal of Psychiatry, August 2011)
"It will be rewarding reading for any psychiatrist interested in education and required reading for medical school psychiatry leads." (The Psychiatrist, August 2011)
"Written by experts in psychiatric education, this work addresses the well-understood methods for teaching and learning the practice of psychiatry." (Doody's, October 2011)
"In this valuable international perspective on teaching psychiatry, Gask (U. of Manchester, UK), Coskun (U. of Kocaeli, Turkey), and Baron (U. of Southern California School of Medicine, Los Angeles, US) advocate improvements in psychiatric education to address the recruitment crisis in the field and help reduce the stigma attached to mental illness even among medical students."
