The new seventh edition of The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry reflects advances in the understanding of the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disorders as well as the positive, transformational change that has taken place in the field of psychiatry as a whole since the last edition. Dr. Roberts, who was a coeditor in the previous edition, has assumed editorial leadership and provides a solid bridge to a fresh generation of chapter authors who share the objectives of furthering knowledge for the benefit of patients and students, of dismantling health disparities, and of stimulating inquiry to satisfy the imperative of improving human health for all people. Not merely an update of the classic Textbook, the new volume exceeds expectations, incorporating deep understanding of mechanisms of disease, novel therapeutic methods, rich evidence-based clinical approaches, and adaptive systems and models of care.
Comprehensive, authoritative, and insightful, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of Psychiatry both elucidates the essentials of sound psychiatric practice and illuminates the future directions of the field.
