"A book that aims to give a succinct overview of the holistic treatment of schizophrenia is extremely welcome...I am happy to recommend it to mental health practitioners as a guide to psychosocial treatments" - "Journal of Mental Health". The new edition of "Pharmacological and Psychosocial Treatments in Schizophrenia" provides an authoritative review of pharmacological and psychosocial treatment interventions for individuals with schizophrenia and related disorders.The text has been fully updated, revised, expanded and new chapters encompass co-morbid general health issues, violence in schizophrenia, the special needs of women with schizophrenia, first-episode psychosis, treatment-resistant schizophrenia, and clinical rating scales in schizophrenia. Each topic is covered with a review of the relevant literature, a summary of the main findings and some tips about how to meet these needs in clinical practice. Thus, the book is both a review and a resource for clinicians and service-providers. The principal editors and their contributors give an opportunity for leading international experts in the field to contribute and provide an international flavour to the text.
